Loves tyrannick conquest.

Love and Beauty have such power

Sometimes joyes they do devour

And those that of their power are tasting

Sighing dayly still are wasting.

Tune of, Blush no redder than the morning.

[...] CƲPID, leave thy Tyranizing; Thou art still new pains devising, Pains too great to be Endured,

[...]Past all hopes for to be Cured. Pains too great to be endured, Past all hopes for to be cured

Take some pitty of my anguish

Mind but how I sigh and languish,

'Tis your frowns my ruine tell me

And what fate by Love befel me,

'Tis your frowns my ruine tell me,

And what fate by love befell me.

'Twas the charms of conquering beauty

That compel'd me to this duty,

Which so strangely doth enslave me

That of sence it doth bereave me,

Which so strangely doth enslave me

That of sence it doth bereave mea.

[figure]

[figure]

'Tis a most exceeding pitty

You should be so fair and pretty

Yet so cruel to undoe me

And not send one smile unto me

Yet so cruel to undoe me,

And not send one smile unto me.

Here I perish with desire

[...]urning in an endless fire

Sighing like one discontented

Vnregarded, Vnlamented.

Sighing like one discontented,

Ʋnregarded, unlamented.

Could I tell thee how I love thée

And respect thee none above thée

Thou wouldst count my tongue too lavish

So with charms my heart to ravish,

Thou wouldst count my tongue too lavish

So with charms thy heart to ravish.

Never was a soul so wounded

Or a reason so confounded

As to cover its own ruine

Hugging what is its undoing

As to covet its own ruine,

Hugging what is its undoing.

But alass it sore doth grieve me

That mine eyes should so deceive me

Thus to bring me to a Fetter

Love's a Chain, and 'tis no better

Thus to bring me to a Fetter,

Love's a chain, and 'tis no better.

You that are with joyes surrounded

Pitty me with love so wounded

That I know not how to ease me

Nothing else but death can please me.

That I know not how to ease me,

Nothing else but death can please me.

When the Nymph heard him complaining

Of his passion strongly reigning

She was mov'd with grief to hear him

And resolved to get near him,

She was mov'd with grief to hear him

And resolved to get near him.

With a sigh and mournful wishes

She bestow'd on him some kisses

mourn no more quoth she, for ever

Thee to please I will endeavour

Mourn no more quoth she for ever

Thee to please I will endeavour.

She of whom thou stood'st in fear on

Now will prove thy only dear one

In my arms I will embrace thee

In my bosome I will place thee

in my arms I will embrace thee

in my bosome &c.

It wounds my soul that I should grieve thee

Now I vow I ne'r will leave thee

Then my dearest do not doubt me

For I cannot live without thée

then my dearest do not doubt me

for I cannot live without thee.

Creation

Created by converting TCP files to TEI P5 using tcp2tei.xsl, TEI @ Oxford.

Editorial practices

EEBO-TCP is a partnership between the Universities of Michigan and Oxford and the publisher ProQuest to create accurately transcribed and encoded texts based on the image sets published by ProQuest via their Early English Books Online (EEBO) database (http://eebo.chadwyck.com). The general aim of EEBO-TCP is to encode one copy (usually the first edition) of every monographic English-language title published between 1473 and 1700 available in EEBO.

EEBO-TCP aimed to produce large quantities of textual data within the usual project restraints of time and funding, and therefore chose to create diplomatic transcriptions (as opposed to critical editions) with light-touch, mainly structural encoding based on the Text Encoding Initiative (http://www.tei-c.org).

The EEBO-TCP project was divided into two phases. The 25,363 texts created during Phase 1 of the project have been released into the public domain as of 1 January 2015. Anyone can now take and use these texts for their own purposes, but we respectfully request that due credit and attribution is given to their original source.

Users should be aware of the process of creating the TCP texts, and therefore of any assumptions that can be made about the data.

Text selection was based on the New Cambridge Bibliography of English Literature (NCBEL). If an author (or for an anonymous work, the title) appears in NCBEL, then their works are eligible for inclusion. Selection was intended to range over a wide variety of subject areas, to reflect the true nature of the print record of the period. In general, first editions of a works in English were prioritized, although there are a number of works in other languages, notably Latin and Welsh, included and sometimes a second or later edition of a work was chosen if there was a compelling reason to do so.

Image sets were sent to external keying companies for transcription and basic encoding. Quality assurance was then carried out by editorial teams in Oxford and Michigan. 5% (or 5 pages, whichever is the greater) of each text was proofread for accuracy and those which did not meet QA standards were returned to the keyers to be redone. After proofreading, the encoding was enhanced and/or corrected and characters marked as illegible were corrected where possible up to a limit of 100 instances per text. Any remaining illegibles were encoded as <gap>s. Understanding these processes should make clear that, while the overall quality of TCP data is very good, some errors will remain and some readable characters will be marked as illegible. Users should bear in mind that in all likelihood such instances will never have been looked at by a TCP editor.

The texts were encoded and linked to page images in accordance with level 4 of the TEI in Libraries guidelines.

Copies of the texts have been issued variously as SGML (TCP schema; ASCII text with mnemonic sdata character entities); displayable XML (TCP schema; characters represented either as UTF-8 Unicode or text strings within braces); or lossless XML (TEI P5, characters represented either as UTF-8 Unicode or TEI g elements).
