Samuel Daniel - "Why should I sing in verse..." lyrics

Why should I sing in verse, why should I frame These sad neglected notes for her dear sake? Why should I offer up unto her name The sweetest sacrifice my youth can make? Why should I strive to make her live forever, That never deigns to give me joy to live? Why should m'afflicted muse so much endeavor Such honor unto cruelty to give? If her defects have purchased her this fame, What should her virtues do, her smiles, her love? If this her worst, how should her best inflame? What pa**ions would her milder favors move? Favors, I think, would sense quite overcome, And that makes happy lovers ever dumb.
