Beaumont And Fletcher Gentle Poems
- 1. Sleep - (from Valentinian)
Care-charming sleep, thou easer of all woes,
Brother to death; sweetly thyself dispose
On this afflicted prince; fall, like a cloud,
In gentle showers; give nothing that is loud

Say I died true.
... - 3. To Venus
O divine star of Heaven,
Thou in power above the seven;
Thou, O gentle Queen, that art
Curer of each wounded heart,
