I. AdmirationConstancy
Sir John Suckling (16091642)O
Three whole days together;
And am like to love three more,
If it prove fair weather.
Ere he shall discover
In the whole wide world again
Such a constant lover.
Is due at all to me;
Love with me had made no stays,
Had it any been but she.
And that very face,
There had been at least ere this
A dozen in her place.
