Tune thy Musicke to thy hart

T. Campion

Tune thy Musicke to thy hart,

Sing thy ioy with thankes, and so thy sorrow:

Though Devotion needes not Art,

Sometimes of the poore the rich may borrow.

Striue not yet for curious wayes:

Concord pleaseth more, the lesse 'tis strained;

Zeale affects not outward prayse,

Onely striues to show a loue vnfained.

Loue can wondrous things affect,

Sweetest Sacrifice, all wrath appeasing;

Loue the highest doth respect;

Loue alone to him is euer pleasing.
