George Gascoigne (Джордж Гаскойн)

Inscription in a Garden

IF any flower that here is grown
Or any herb may ease your pain,
Take and account it as your own,
But recompense the like again;
      For some and some is honest play,
      And so my wife taught me to say.

If here to walk you take delight,
Why, come and welcome, when you will;
If I bid you sup here this night,
Bid me another time, and still
      Think some and some is honest play,
      For so my wife taught me to say.

Thus if you sup or dine with me,
If you walk here or sit at ease,
If you desire the thing you see,
And have the same your mind to please,
      Think some and some is honest play,
      And so my wife taught me to say.

1. Sonnet 4. To prink me up
2. Woodmanship
3. Fie, Pleasure, Fie!
4. The Lullaby of a Lover
5. The Looks of a Lover Enamoured
