<HEAD>The Maidens An&s;wer.</HEAD>
<L>I hear my true love</L>
<L>this mo&s;t &s;orrowful news,</L>
<L>Which makes me lament,</L>
<L>alas, how can I choo&s;e,</L>
<L>The Seas I do fear</L>
<L>will my comforts de&s;troy,</L>
<L>And rob me at la&s;t</L>
<L>of my comfort and joy.</L>
</LG>
<LG>
<L>Oh! when thou art ab&s;ent</L>
<L>what joy can I find,</L>
<L>Or what can give ea&s;e</L>
<L>to my troubled mind,</L>
<L>E'ry wind that doth blow</L>
<L>will my plea&s;ures de&s;troy,</L>
<L>For fear I &s;hould lo&s;e</L>
<L>my delight and my joy.</L>
</LG>
<LG>
<L>Go thou but to <HI>Venice</HI></L>
<L>thou never &s;halt find</L>
<L>A lover &s;o true or</L>
<L>&s;o faithful and kind.</L>
<L>Though at fir&s;t I did &s;eem</L>
<L>to be childi&s;h and coy,</L>
<L>Thou now art my comfort,</L>
<L>my love and my joy.</L>
</LG>
<LG>
<L>Then never for&s;ake me</L>
<L>for profit or gain,</L>
<L>Nor leave thy true love</L>
<L>for the wealth of the main,</L>
<L>A jewel to love</L>
<L>is an ab&s;olute Toy,</L>
<L>Then never for&s;ake me</L>
<L>my love and my joy.</L>
</LG>
<LG>
<L>But if thou wilt go</L>
<L>to the Seas that do rage,</L>
<L>Give me but thy promi&s;e,</L>
<L>and firmly ingage,</L>
<L>Then ile wait thy return,</L>
<L>nothing &s;hall me annoy,</L>
<L>But I con&s;tant will prove</L>
<L>to my comfort and joy,</L>
</LG>
<LG>
<L>Such Loyalty never</L>
<L>by any was &s;hown</L>
<L>As ile &s;how to thee,</L>
<L>for I love thee alone,</L>
<L>When we once are fa&s;t ty'd,</L>
<L>ile applaud the blind Boy,</L>
<L>That taught me to love</L>
<L>thee my comfort and joy.</L>
