Since There's No Help, Come Let Us Kiss And Part

Title:     Since There's No Help, Come Let Us Kiss And Part
Author: Michael Drayton [More Titles by Drayton]

Since there's no help, Come let us kiss and part,
Nay, I have done: You get no more of Me,
And I am glad, yea glad with all my heart,
That thus so cleanly, I myself can free,
Shake hands forever, Cancel all our Vowes,
And when we meet at any time again,
Be it not scene in either of our Brows,
That We one jot of former Love retain;
Now at the last gasp of Loves latest Breath,
When his Pulse failing, Passion speechless lies,
When Faith is kneeling by his bed of Death,
And Innocence is closing up his Eyes,
Now if thou would'st, when all have given him over,
From Death to Life, thou might'st him yet recover.

[The end]
Michael Drayton's poem: Since There's No Help, Come Let Us Kiss And Part
