Love me not for comely grace
John Jeffreys
Love not me for comely grace,
For my pleasing eye or face,
Nor for any outward part,
No, nor for my constant heart:
For these may fail or turn to ill,
So thou and I shall sever:
Keep, therefore, a true woman's eye,
And love me still but know not why;
So hast thou the same reason still
To doat upon me ever!
