Now Winter Nights Enlarge Lyrics by Thomas Campion

The Third Booke of Ayres

0

Now winter nights enlarge
     The number of their hours;
And clouds their storms discharge
     Upon the airy towers
Let now the chimneys blaze
     And cups o’erflow with wine
Let well-turned words amaze
     With harmony divine
Now yellow waxen lights
     Shall wait on honey love
While youthful revels, masques, and courtly sights
     Sleep’s leaden spells remove
This time doth well dispense
     With lovers’ long discourse;
Much speech hath some defense
     Though beauty no remorse
All do not all things well;
     Some measures comely tread
Some knotted riddles tell
     Some poems smoothly read
The summer hath his joys
     And winter his delights;
Though love and all his pleasures are but toys
     They shorten tedious nights
