Now cease my wand`ring eyes
Strange beauties to admire
In change least comfort lies
Long joys yield long desire.

One faith one love
Makes our frail pleasures eternal and in sweetness prove
New hopes new joys
Are still with sorrow declining unto deep annoys.

One man hath but one soul
Which art cannot divide
If all one soul must love
Two loves must be denied.

One soul one love
By faith and merit united cannot remove
Distracted sprites
Are everchanging and hapless in their delights.

Nature two eyes hath giv`n
All beauty to import
As well in earth as heav`n
But she hath giv`n one heart.

That though we see
Ten thousand beauties yet in us in us one should be
One steadfast love
Because our hearts stand fix`d although our eyes do move.
