Fly, Love, aloft to heaven
Language: English
Fly, Love, aloft to heaven and look out Fortune, Then sweetly, sweetly, her importune, That I from my Calisto best beloved As you and she set down be never moved. And, Love, to Carimel see you commend me, Fortune for his sweet sake may chance befriend me.
