Alas, tarry but one half hour Lyrics by Thomas Weelkes

Ayres or Phantasticke Spirits for Three Voices

0

Alas ! O tarry but one half hour
Until an opportunity fit my power
Then will I look and sigh out all my sorrow
Now ever\'body looketh on
And you know I must be gone
To-morrow
Adieu ! Why did I aspire high
When I see my ruinous end so nigh ?
Yet now I will prolong my last farewell
Else in sudden sort to part
Will go near to break my heart
That doth swell
