102. To his Lute MY lute, be as thou wast when thou didst grow With thy green mother in some shady grove, When immelodious winds but made thee move, And birds on thee their ramage did bestow. Sith that dear Voice which did thy sounds approve, Which us'd in such harmonious strains to flow, Is reft from Earth to tune those spheres above, What art thou but a harbinger of woe ? Thy pleasing notes be pleasing notes no more, But orphan wailings to the fainting ear, Each stop a sigh, each sound draws ...forth a tear : Be therefore silent as in woods before, Or if that any hand to touch thee deign, Like widow'd turtle, still her loss complain.
102. Rainagt', warbling.
301 WILLIAM DRUMMOND 103. Sonnet SWEET Spring, thou turn'st with all thy goodly train, Thy head with flames, thy mantle bright with flow'rs : The zephyrs curl the green locks of the plain, The clouds for joy in pearls weep down their show'rs. Thou turn'st, sweet youth, but, ah ! my pleasant hours And happy days with thee come not again ; The sad memorials only of my pain Do with thee turn, which turn my sweets in sours.
