The peaceful western wind
The winter storms hath tam'd,
And nature in each kind
The kind heat hath inflam'd.
The forward buds so sweetly breathe
Out of their earthy bowers,
That heav'n, which views their pomp beneath,
Would faine be deckt with flowers.
See how the morning smiles
On her bright eastern hill,
And with soft steps beguiles
Them that lie slumbring still.
The musick-loving birds are come
From cliffs and rocks unknown,
To see the trees and briers bloom,
That late were over-flown.
What Saturne did destroy,
Loves Queen revives again;
And now her naked boy
Doth in the fields remain:
Where he such pleasing change doth view
In ev'ry living thing,
As if the world were borne anew
To gratifie the Spring.
If all things life present,
Why die my comforts then?
Why suffers my content?
Am I the worst of men?
O beauty, be not thou accus'd
Too justly in this case:
Unkindly if true love be us'd,
'Twill yield thee little grace.
