Song, Sweetest Love, I Do Not Go, by John Dunn. Read for Libriebox.org, by Jacob Martinez. Sweetest Love, I Do Not Go for wearing this a-th-y. Nor in hope the world can show a fitted love for me, but since that I must die at last, to use myself in jest, thus by fame deaths to die.
Yesterday the sun went hence, and yet is here today, he hath no desire nor sense, nor half so short away, then fear not me, but believe that I shall make speed to your journeys, since I take more wings and spurs than he. Oh how feeble is Nens' power, that if good fortune fall cannot add another hour, nor lost our recall, but come bad chance, and we join to it our strength and we teach at art and length, it's so for us to advance. When thou sized, thou size not wind, but size to my soul away, when thou weepest unkindly kind, my life's blood doth decay, it cannot be that thou lovest me as thou saised, if in dine my life thou waste, that art the best of me, that not I divinely heart for think me any ill, destiny may take that part, and may thy fears fulfill, but think that we are but turn the side to sleep, they who one another keep alive never parted be. End of poem.
