Aphra Behn - Love Arm`dAphra Behn - Love Arm`d
Work rating:
Low
Love in Fantastique Triumph satt,
Whilst bleeding Hearts around him flow`d,
For whom Fresh pains he did create,
And strange Tryanic power he show`d;
From thy Bright Eyes he took his fire,
Which round about, in sport he hurl`d;
But `twas from mine he took desire,
Enough to undo the Amorous World.
From me he took his sighs and tears,
From thee his Pride and Crueltie;
From me his Languishments and Feares,
And every Killing Dart from thee;
Thus thou and I, the God have arm`d,
And sett him up a Deity;
But my poor Heart alone is harm`d,
Whilst thine the Victor is, and free.
