Importune Me No More - Faith And The Muse

When I was fair and young, and favor graced me

Of many was I sought their mistress for to be

But I did scorn them all, and answered them therefore

Go, go, seek some otherwhere Importune Me No more

How many weeping eyes I made to pine with woe

How many sighing hearts, I have no skill to show

Yet I the prouder grew and answered them therefore

Go, go, seek some otherwhere Importune Me No more

Then spake fair Venus' son, that proud victorious boy

Who said «Fine dame, in consequence that you have been so coy

I will pluck thy plumes therefore you shall say no more

Go, go, seek some otherwhere Importune Me No more!»

Eftsoones he spake these words, such change grew in my breast

That neither night nor day since then, I could take any rest

Then Lo!

I did repent that I had spoken before

Go, go, seek some otherwhere Importune Me No more

Go, go, seek some otherwhere Importune Me No more
