Ye Gilded Nothings Gaudy Toyes | A |
Too long ye have my Soul misled | B |
Too long with Aiery Diet fed | B |
But now my Heart ye shall no more | C |
Deceive as you have heretofore | C |
For when I hear such Sirens sing | D |
Like Ithaca's fore warned King | D |
With prudent Resolution I | E |
Will so my Will and Fancy tye | E |
That stronger to the Mast not he | F |
Than I to Reason bound will be | F |
And though your Witchcrafts strike my Ear | G |
Unhurt like him your Charms I'll hear | G |
