Thomas Campion Music Poems

    FOLLOW your saint, follow with accents sweet!
    Haste you, sad notes, fall at her flying feet!
    There, wrapt in cloud of sorrow, pity move,
    And tell the ravisher of my soul I perish for her love:

    WHEN thou must home to shades of underground,
    And there arrived, a new admired guest,
    The beauteous spirits do engirt thee round,
    White Iope, blithe Helen, and the rest,
    ...
