Love

To Chloris (If my Addresses are grateful)

by Thomas D'Urfey 1653–1723

From New Poems (1690)

Love

If my Addresses are grateful,
Shew it in granting my Suit,
Or if my Passion be hateful,
Leave me and end the dispute:
I hate your doubling and turning,
Like a cours'd Hare in a Morning,
Either comply as you should,
Or leave me to others that would.
