May the Ambitions Ever FindCharles Sackville, Earl of Dorset (16381706)
M
Success in crowds and noise,
While gentler love does fill my mind
With silent real joys!
And the world think them wise,
While I lie dying at her feet
And all the world despise.
And melt in court delights;
Her eyes can give much brighter days,
Her arms much softer nights.
