Rhyme Scheme: AABBCCDDEEFFGGHIDDJJCome and let us live my Dear | A |
Let us love and never fear | A |
What the sourest Fathers say | B |
Brightest Sol that dies today | B |
Lives again as blithe tomorrow | C |
But if we dark sons of sorrow | C |
Set o then how long a Night | D |
Shuts the Eyes of our short light | D |
Then let amorous kisses dwell | E |
On our lips begin to tell | E |
A Thousand and a Hundred score | F |
An Hundred and a Thousand more | F |
Till another Thousand smother | G |
That and that wipe off another | G |
Thus at last when we have numb'red | H |
Many a Thousand many a Hundred | I |
We'll confound the reckoning quite | D |
And lose ourselves in wild delight | D |
While our joys so multiply | J |
As shall mock the envious eye | J |
