XLIV

NATURE AND MAN

BLOW, blow, thou winter wind,

Thou art not so unkind

As man's ingratitude ;

Thy tooth is not so keen,

Because thou art not seen,

Although thy breath be rude.

Heigh-ho! sing, heigh-ho! unto the green holly: Most friendship is feigning, most loving mere folly : Then, heigh-ho, the holly!

This life is most jolly.

Freeze, freeze, thou bitter sky,
That dost not bite so nigh
As benefits forgot :
Though thou the waters warp,

Thy sting is not so sharp

As friend remember'd not.

Heigh-ho sing, heigh-ho! unto the green holly:

Most friendship is feigning, most loving mere folly: Then, heigh-ho, the holly!

This life is most jolly.

XLV

THE WORLD'S WAY

WHY, let the stricken deer go weep,

The hart ungalléd play ;

For some must watch, while some must sleep :

So runs the world away.

XLVI

THE LIFE ACCORDING TO NATURE

UNDER the greenwood tree

Who loves to lie with me,

And turn his merry note

Unto the sweet bird's throat,

Come hither, come hither, come hither!
Here shall he see

No enemy

But winter and rough weather.

Who doth ambition shun

And loves to live i' the sun,

Seeking the food he eats

And pleased with what he gets,

Come hither, come hither, come hither:

Here shall he see

No enemy

But winter and rough weather.

Ω θεοὶ, τίς ἄρα Κύπρις, ἢ τίς Ιμερος

τοῦδε ξυνήψατο;
