Confined Love (3:58) Lyrics - Singles - Inchtabokatables

(John Donne, 1573-1631) 

 

some man unworthy to be possesor 

of old or new love himself being false or weak 

thought his pain and shame would be lesser 

from womankind he might his anger wreak 

 

hey and thance a low did grow 

one should but one man know 

but are other creatures so but are other creatures so 

 

are some of the stars by law forbidden 

to smile with the list or lend away their light 

are birds devorced or are they chidden 

if they leave their maid or lie abroad a night. 

 

beasts do no jointures loose though they new lovers choose 

but we are made worse than those , but we are made worse than those. 

 

who e`er rigged fair ship to lie in harbours 

and not to seek new lands, or not to deal withal 

or built fair houses, set trees, and arbours, 

only to lock up, or else to let them fall ? 

 

good is not good, unless 

a thousand it possess, 

but doth waste with greediness. 

but doth waste with greediness.
