Alidor and Calista Being an excellent New Song much in Request at Court To an Excellent New Play-House Tune SInce first my heart did feel the smart of fair Calista's charming Tongue No joys it could to it impart my flaming passion was so strong But still my grief beg ging relief which mov'd her pitty not in vain For ne'r was known by anyone so charming and so sweet a Swain II. Her fancy found some Charms abound in Alidor which she oft said Which often did his senses drown'd but ah they were too soon betray'd For as her passion still did move and urge her fancy to comply The Fates which often crosses Love divided my poor Swain and I. III. She still in brief declar'd her grief but ne'r durst with her love comply Which forc'd her tears to beg relief from Loves incessant Cruelty Yet with that Art her yielding heart dessembled what her eyes discry'd And rather choose to Embrace the Dart then e're be any others Bride IV. But ah what comfort can this give to my poor heart that 's rent in twain Nay it were better dye then live then live to see my self in pain Although she says she loves so strong that none can with her paralell Yet why should I my self thus wrong when I may in Embraces dwell V. But hold I think it were unjust to use such Acts of Tyranny I 'le rather be confin'd to Dust than break my Faith and Constancy Ne'r shall Calista have to say Alidor e're shall prove unkind I 'le be a Martyr e'ry day sooner then ever change my mind VI. My pains are sore and now therefore my love once more shall be reveal'd To she whose Beauty I adore who knows at length my love may yield It did appear his love did hear those words which he in sorrows said Then willingly she did comply for Cupid now her heart betray'd VII Love here 's my hand at thy command Calista I thy love will be Now let us not disputing stand I will forsake the world for thee They both unite in true delight and love in e'ry vein doth flow She felt the smart of Cupids Dart at length whether she wou'd or no. Printed for J. Deacan at the sign of the Angel in Guiltspur-street 1684.
