Third Booke of Songes, 1603 - XX. What poor astromomers are they - The Consort Of Musicke/Anthony Rooley[00:00:00]
Written by:John Dowland[00:00:00]
What poor astronomers are they[00:00:02]
Take women's eyes for stars[00:00:05]
And set their thoughts in battle 'ray[00:00:10]
To fight such idle wars[00:00:14]
When in the end they shall approve[00:00:17]
'Tis but a jest drawn out of love[00:00:21]
When in the end they shall approve[00:00:24]
'Tis but a jest drawn out of love[00:00:28]
And love itself is but a jest[00:00:34]
Devis'd by idle heads[00:00:37]
To catch young fancies in the nest[00:00:42]
And lay it in fools' beds[00:00:46]
That being hatch'd in beauty's eyes[00:00:50]
They may be fledg'd ere they be wise[00:00:53]
That being hatch'd in beauty's eyes[00:00:57]
They may be fledg'd ere they be wise[00:01:00]
But yet it is a sport to see[00:01:07]
How wit will run on wheels[00:01:10]
While will cannot persuaded be[00:01:15]
With that which reason feels[00:01:19]
That women's eyes and stars are odd[00:01:23]
And love is but a feigned god[00:01:27]
That women's eyes and stars are odd[00:01:30]
And love is but a feigned god[00:01:34]
But such as will run mad with will[00:01:40]
I cannot clear their sight[00:01:44]
But leave them to their study still[00:01:48]
To look where is no light[00:01:52]
'Till them too late we make them try[00:01:56]
They study false astronomy[00:02:00]
'Till them too late we make them try[00:02:03]
They study false astronomy[00:02:07]
