Amour 14: Looking into the Glasse versuri

Versuri Michael Drayton – Amour 14: Looking into the Glasse lyrics

Looking into the glasse of my youths miseries,
I see the ugly face of my deformed cares,
With withered browes, all wrinckled with dispaires,
That for my mis-spent youth the tears fel from my eyes.

Then, in these teares, the mirror of these eyes,
Thy fayrest youth and Beautie doe I see
Imprinted in my teares by looking still on thee:
Thus midst a thousand woes ten thousand joyes arise.

Yet in those joyes, the shadowes of my good,
In this fayre limned ground as white as snow,
Paynted the blackest Image of my woe,
With murthering hands imbru’d in mine own blood:

And in this Image his darke clowdy eyes,
My life, my youth, my loue, I heere Anotamize.
