Sir John Suckling (16091642)The Constant Lover
O
Three whole days together,
And am like to love three more,
If it prove fine 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 dozen in her place!
