Physician Nature Let my spirit bloodA
O ease my heart of verse and let me restB
Throw me upon thy Tripod till the floodA
Of stifling numbers ebbs from my full breastB
A theme a theme great nature give a themeC
Let me begin my dreamC
I come I see thee as thou standest thereD
Beckon me not into the wintry airD
-
Ah dearest love sweet home of all my fearsE
And hopes and joys and panting miseriesF
To night if I may guess thy beauty wearsG
A smile of such delightH
As brilliant and as brightH
As when with ravished aching vassal eyesI
Lost in soft amazeJ
I gaze I gazeJ
-
Who now with greedy looks eats up my feastK
What stare outfaces now my silver moonL
Ah keep that hand unravished at the leastK
Let let the amorous burnM
But pr'ythee do not turnM
The current of your heart from me so soonL
O save in charityN
The quickest pulse for meN
-
Save it for me sweet love though music breatheO
Voluptuous visions into the warm airD
Though swimming through the dance's dangerous wreathP
Be like an April dayQ
Smiling and cold and gayQ
A temperate lilly temperate as fairD
Then Heaven there will beN
A warmer June for meN
-
Why this you'll say my Fanny is not trueR
Put your soft hand upon your snowy sideS
Where the heart beats confess 'tis nothing newR
Must not a woman beN
A feather on the seaN
Sway'd to and fro by every wind and tideS
Of as uncertain speedT
As blow ball from the meadT
-
I know it and to know it is despairD
To one who loves you as I love sweet FannyN
Whose heart goes fluttering for you every whereD
Nor when away you roamU
Dare keep its wretched homeU
Love love alone his pains severe and manyN
Then loveliest keep me freeN
From torturing jealousyN
-
Ah if you prize my subdued soul aboveV
The poor the fading brief pride of an hourW
Let none profane my Holy See of loveV
Or with a rude hand breakX
The sacramental cakeX
Let none else touch the just new budded flowerW
If not may my eyes closeY
Love on their lost reposeZ
