Stanley, Thomas
English poetry -- Early modern, 1500-1700; Stanley, Thomas, 1625-1678
No, no, poor blasted Hope! 1
Not that by this disdain 44
Now will I a lover be [Anacreon] 79
O turn away those cruel eyes 69
Old Hecuba, the Trojan matron's, years [Plato] 82
On this swelling bank, once proud 9
On this verdant lotus laid [Anacreon] 80
Pale envious Sickness, hence! no more 35
Rebellious fools that scorn to bow 58
Roses, in breathing forth their scent 37
See how this ivy strives to twine 12
See how this violet, which before 27
See, the Spring herself discloses [Anacreon] 79
Since every place you bless, the name 6
Since Fate commands me hence, and I 59
So fair Aurora doth herself discover 24
Stay, fairest Chariessa, stay and mark 13
Such icy kisses, anchorites that live 25
Suckling, whose numbers could invite 22
That I might ever dream thus! that some power 1
That kiss which last thou gav'st me, stole 60
That wise philosopher who had design'd 20
The air which thy smooth voice doth break 50
The lazy hours move slow 10
The silkworm, to long sleep retir'd 62
The stars, my Star! thou view'st: heaven I would be [Plato] 81
These papers, Chariessa, let thy breath 14
Think not, pale lover, he who dies 25
Thou best of Friendship, Knowledge and of Art! 17
Thou that both feel'st and dost admire 2
Thou whose sole name all passions doth comprise 13
Though 'gainst me Love and Destiny conspire 7
Though when I lov'd thee thou wert fair 51
'Tis no kiss my Fair bestows [Secundus] 77
To Archaeanassa, on whose furrow'd brow [Plato] 82
Torment of absence and delay [Montalvan] 75
Vex no more thyself and me [Anacreon] 78
Wert thou by all affections sought 68
Wert thou yet fairer than thou art ['Mr. W. M.'] 98
What busy cares too timely born 4
