Adieu sweet Sun from Urania by Lady Mary Wroth Adieu sweet Sun Thy night is neare Which must appeare Like mine, whose light but new begun Weares as if spun By chance not right, Led by a light False, and pleasing, ever wun. Come once in view Sweet heat, and light My heavy s'prit Dull'd in thy setting, made anew If you renew, Daysies doe grow, And spring below Blest with thy warm'th, so once I grew. Wilt thou returne, Deare blesse mine eyes Where loves zeale lyes Let thy deere object mildly burne Nor flie, but turne 'Tis season now Each happy bow Both buds and blooms, why should I mourne?
