O Sweet Woods - John Dowland

O sweet woods... You men that give false worship unto Love, And seke that which you never shall obtaine, The endlesse worke of Sisisphus you procure, Whose end is this, to know you strive in vaine, Hope and desire which now your Idols bee, You needs must loose and feele dispaire with mee. O sweet woods, etc. O how much, etc. You woods in you the fairest Nimphs have walked, Nimphs at whose sight all harts did yeeld to Love. You woods in whom deere lovers oft have talked, How doe you now a place of mourning prove, Wansted my Mistres saith this is the doome, Thou art loves Childbed, Nursery, and Tombe. O sweet woods...
