Clarinda, Mistress Of M Sul
clarinda, mistress of my soul
clarinda, mistres of my soul,
the measur'd time is run!
the wretch beh the dreary pole
so marks his latest sun.
to what dark cave of frozen night
shall poor sylvander hie;
depriv'd of thee, his life and light,
the sun of all his joy?
we part—but by these precious drops,
that fill thy lovely eyes,
no ht shall guide my steps,
till thy bright beams arise!
she, the fair sun of all her sex,
has blest my glorious day;
and shall a glimmering pla fix
my worship to its ray?
