ALL my luve, leave me not, Leave me not, leave me not, All my luve, leave me not Thus mine alone. With ane burden on my back, I may not bear it I am sa waik, Luve, this burden fra me take Or ellis I am gone. With sinnis I am laden sore, Leave me not, leave me not, With sinnis I am laden sore Leave me not alone. I pray Thee, Lord, therefore, Keep not my sinnis in store, Loose me or I be forlore, And hear my moan. With Thy handis Thou has me wrocht, Leave me not, leave me not, With Thy handis Thou has me wrocht, Leave me not alone. I was sold and Thou me bocht, With Thy blude Thou has me coft, Now am I hither socht To Thee, Lord, alone. I cry and I call to Thee, To leave me not, to leave me not, I cry and I call to Thee To leave me not alone. All they that laden be Thou biddis come to Thee Then sall they savit be Through Thy mercy alone. | Discover our Poem Explanations and Poet Analyses!Other Poems of Interest...ECHO by WALTER JOHN DE LA MARE TWO RIVERS by RALPH WALDO EMERSON ODE ON THE DEATH OF A FAVOURITE CAT, DROWNED IN A TUB by THOMAS GRAY THE MOCKING BIRD by SIDNEY LANIER KNEE-DEEP IN JUNE by JAMES WHITCOMB RILEY SONNET: 35 by WILLIAM SHAKESPEARE ANECDOTE OF THE JAR by WALLACE STEVENS O YOU WHOM I OFTEN AND SILENTLY COME by WALT WHITMAN ON READING 'VORTICIST POEM ON LOVE' by FRANKLIN PIERCE ADAMS |
