The Passionate LOVER OR The Damsels Grief Crown'd with Comforts To a pleasant New Play-house-Tune much in Request This may be Printed R. P. Maid SIghs and groans and melancholly moans I languish and anguish in dolefull Tones For him I loved dear I do complain Because his company I can't refrain Man Sighs and groans you say you are opprest You say I am he whom you loved best But if it be so and your heart be true Then I wil bear a part as well as you Maid Men are deceitfull who can them believe Their flattering words they Maids deceive With their Ruby Lips and their tempting Eye They terrifie poor Maidens till they dye What cares he that never felt the smart Of this my languishing Love-sick Heart Had you a sence of what I do endure Then you in love would grant a speedy cure 'T is pale Death that now must give me ease For there is nothing else my Heart can please Then on my Tomb alas it shall be read That here lies a loyal Lover dead Man Thou hast no cause my dearest to complain For as I am thy Love I will remain Do but believe me thou shalt be my Bride For I value none in the World beside None but thee my Love I adore Thy blessings dearest here I will restore Dry up thy Tears and take this tender kiss Being in token of a true Loves bliss Maid Was I sure that these thy words were true Then might I bid my sorrows quite adieu Yet I have known Men say as much as this And then have left their Lovers in distress For when they have brought us to their bow They then do prove our final overthrow True hearted Men I find there is but few Nay I may say the very same by you None but I you say you do adore Have you not said as much as this before When you declar'd that I should be your wife And yet you left me near bereav'd of Life Man When I left my love it was to try Thy pure affections and thy constancy I know when Cupid doth Mens hearts invade Females have oftentimes the Tyrants play'd But I find my Love is none of those Therefore my heart to thee I will disclose Thy Loyalty my purest Love hath won 'T is none I prize but thee beneath the Sun We 'll never part while I remain alive Then let thy drooping Spirits now revive The very Mountains shall as soon remove As I found disloyal to my Love Now when he had uttered forth his mind There was no grief but both to love inclin'd Where he embrac'd her in his tender arms With many sweet salutes and pleasing charms Thus was tears straight turned into joy There 's nothing can their comforts annoy By solemn vows their hearts are linked fast And live in love as long as life shall last
