When Thou Must Home To Shades Of Underground
When thou must home to shades of underground, And there arrived, a new admird guest, The beauteous spirits do engirt thee round, White Iope, blithe Helen, and the rest, To hear the stories of thy finished love From that smooth tongue whose music hell can move, Then wilt thou speak of banqueting delights, Of masques and revels which sweet youth did make, Of tourneys and great challenges of knights, And all these triumphs for thy beauty's sake; When thou hast told these honors done to thee, Then tell, Oh tell, how thou didst murther me.
