• Sweet, stay awhile!

• On a time the amorous Silvy

JOHN BARTLET

• A pretty duck there was
• O Lord, thy faithfulness
• What thing is love?
• When from my love

THOMAS CAMPION

• A secret love or two
• Author of light
• Beauty, since you so much desire
• Come you pretty false-eyed wanton
• Follow thy fair sun
• Follow your saint
• I must complain
• If love loves truth
• If thou long’st so much
• It fell on a summer’s day
• Love me or not
• My sweetest Lesbia
• Never love unless you can
• O what unhoped for sweet supply!
• Oft have I sigh’d
• The cypress curtain of the night
• The peaceful western wind
• There is a garden in her face
• Vain men, whose follies
• Veil, love, mine eyes
• When to her lute Corinna sings
• Your fair looks

MICHAEL CAVENDISH

• Love is not blind
• Stay, Glycia, stay!
• The heart to rue
• Wanton, come hither!

WILLIAM CORKINE

• He that hath no mistress
• Sweet Cupid
• Sweet, let me go!

JOHN DANYEL

• Dost thou withdraw thy grace?
• I die whenas I do not see
• Like as the lute delights
• Why canst thou not?

ALFONSO FERRABOSCO II

• Drown not with tears
• Fain I would
• Like hermit poor
• Unconstant love
• Young and simple though I am

THOMAS FORD

• Fair sweet cruel
• Not full twelve years
• Now I see thy looks were feigned
• Since first I saw your face
• Unto the temple of thy beauty

RICHARD GREAVES

• Ye bubbling springs

ROBERT JOHNSON
