Thou art but young thou sayest

Thou art but young thou sayest,

And Love's delight thou weighest not;

O take time while thou mayest,

Lest when thou would'st, thou mayest not.

If Love shall thus assail thee,

A double double anguish will torment thee:

And thou wilt wish (but wishes all will fail thee)

"O me that I were young again"; and so repent thee.
