Rhyme Scheme: AABBCC DDEEFF GHIIJJ'Tis true 'tis day what though it be | A |
O wilt thou therefore rise from me | A |
Why should we rise because 'tis light | B |
Did we lie down because 'twas night | B |
Love which in spite of darkness brought us hither | C |
Should in despite of light keep us together | C |
- | |
Light hath no tongue but is all eye | D |
If it could speak as well as spy | D |
This were the worst that it could say | E |
That being well I fain would stay | E |
And that I loved my heart and honour so | F |
That I would not from her that had them go | F |
- | |
Must business thee from hence remove | G |
Oh that's the worst disease of love | H |
The poor the foul the false love can | I |
Admit but not the busied man | I |
He which hath business and makes love doth do | J |
Such wrong as when a married man doth woo | J |
