From "Amaryllis", London, c.1755; a collection of "such songs as are most esteemed for composition and delicacy and sung at the Publick Theatres or Gardens".
Lyrics: Edmund Waller

It is not that I love you less
Than when before your feet I lay,
But to prevent the sad increase
Of hopeless love, I keep away.

But 'tis in vain; for all those things
Which I have known belong to you,
Thy image to my fancy brings,
And all my former pains renew.
