- 1. Soft Cupid soft, There is no haste,
- For all unkindnesse gone and past.
- Since thou wilt needs forsake me so,
- let us parte friends, before thou goe.
- 2. Still shalt thou have my heart to use,
- When I cannot otherwise chuse,
- My life thou mayst command Saunce doubt,
- Command I say and goe with out.
- 3. And if that I doe ever prove,
- False and unkind to gentle Love,
- Ile not desire to live a day,
- Nor any longer then I may.
- 4. Ile dayly blesse the little God,
- But not without a smarting rod,
- Wilt thou still unkindly leave mee,
- Now I pray God all ill goe with thee.
