- THE LADY'S THIRD SONG
-
- WHEN you and my true lover meet
- And he plays tunes between your feet.
- Speak no evil of the soul,
- Nor think that body is the whole,
- For I that am his daylight lady
- Know worse evil of the body;
- But in honour split his love
- Till either neither have enough,
- That I may hear if we should kiss
- A contrapuntal serpent hiss,
- You, should hand explore a thigh,
- All the labouring heavens sigh.
