The Divorce

Post by Justin »

The Divorce by Thomas Stanley (extract).

As featured on Madcaps Flaming Duty


DEAR, back my wounded heart restore,
And turn away thy powerful eyes
Flatter my willing soul no more,
Love must not hope what Fate denies.

Take, take away thy smiles and kisses,
Thy Love wounds deeper then Disdain,
For he that sees the Heaven he misses,
Sustains two Hels, of losse and pain.

Or in thy unrelenting breast
Should I disdain or coynesse move,
He by thy hate might be releas't,
Who now is prisoner to thy love.

Since then unkind Fate will divorce
Those whom Affection long united,
Be thou as cruel as this force,
And I in death shall be delighted.

Thus whilst so many suppliants woe
And beg they may thy pitty prove,
I onely for thy scorn do sue,
'Tis charity here not to love.

You can stop that kind of talk right away Mr. King! There are one or two who are liable to implode, if they're subjected to any more excitement.

Thanks Justin, but as usual, I'm too shallow to even try to understand what the poet is getting at. My problem with lyrics in general, is they are very personal and I cannot often relate to them. This is what drew me to instumental music in the first place, you're free to interpret the music as you see fit (bit like the difference between reading a book and viewing a film directors interpretation). Sorry, just me.

I've got the same problem Mick. Although it is nice to find a lyric that on a few occasions can touch you. Only a few songs in my collection have ever done this. David Bowies Kooks is one and another is Ready to go Home by Asia.

I've had one or two moments with Chameleons lyrics and Joni Mitchell's "Both Sides Now" used to strike a chord. Still love the words to that one!

Cards? that's a question only EB can answer, I hope so for the sake of fans who don't want to walk about London with pockets full of reddies...although a quick trip to the Jack Horner would soon sort that out ;)
