A small well-gotten stock, and country seat [E. Cat[alectis]
Vet[erum] Poet[arum.]] 81
Alas! alas! thou turn'st in vain [Guarini] 72
As in the crystal-centre of the sight [Fairfax] 89
As when some brook flies from itself away [Montalvan] 75
Ask the empress of the night 26
Beauty, thy harsh imperious chains 37
Beauty, whose soft magnetic chains 38
Cast, Chariessa, cast that glass away 41
Cast off, for shame, ungentle maid 67
Celinda, by what potent art 45
Chide, chide no more away 32
Come, my Dear, whilst youth conspires [Casone] 73
Dear, back my wounded heart restore 57
Dear, fold me once more in thine arms 10
Dear, urge no more the killing cause 48
Delay! Alas, there cannot be 43
Doris, I that could repel 50
Draw near 61
'Fair is Alexis,' I no sooner said [Plato] 82
Fair rebel to thyself and Time [Ronsard] 71
Faith, 'tis not worth thy pains and care 31
Far from thy dearest self, the scope [Tasso] 76
Favonius, the milder breath o' th' Spring 33
Five oxen, grazing in a flowery mead [Plato] 83
Fletcher, whose fame no age can ever waste 15
Fool! take up thy shaft again 43
Foolish Lover, go and seek 28
He whose active thoughts disdain 52
I go, dear Saint, away 29
I languish in a silent flame [De Voiture] 73
I must no longer now admire 62
I prithee let my heart alone 65
I will not trust thy tempting graces 64
I yield, dear enemy, nor know 55
If we are one, dear Friend! why shouldst thou be 22
Love! what tyrannic laws must they obey 30
Madam! the blushes I betray 16
My sickly breath [Guarini] 72
No, I will sooner trust the wind 65
