the peaceful western wind - thomas campion lyrics

the peacefull westerne winde
the winter stormes hath tam’d
and nature in each kinde
the kinde heat hath inflam’d:
the forward buds so sweetly breathe
out of their earthy bowers
that heau’n which viewes their pompe beneath
would faine be deckt with flowers

see how the morning smiles
on her bright easterne hill
and with soft steps beguiles
thеm that lie slumbring still
the musicke*louing birds arе come
from cliffes and rocks vnknowne
to see the trees and briers blome
that late were ouerflowne
what saturne did destroy
loues queene reuiues againe;
and now her naked boy
doth in the fields remaine
where he such pleasing change doth view
in eu’ry liuing thing
as if the world were borne anew
to gratifie the spring

if all things life present
why die my comforts then?
why suffers my content?
am i the worst of men?
o, beautie, be not thou accus’d
too iustly in this case:
vnkindly if true loue be vs’d
’twill yeeld thee little grace
