Full Lyrics

Goe, and catch a falling starre, Get with child a mandrake's root, Tell me, where all past years are, Or who cleft the Divel's foot, Teach me to heare Mermaids singing Or to keep envies stinging, And finde What winde Serves to'advance an honest mind. If thou beest borne to strange sights, Things invisible to see, Ride ten thousand daies and nights, Till age snow white haires on thee, Thou, when thou retorn'st, wilt tell mee All strange wonders, that befell thee, And sweare No where Lives a woman true and fair. If thou findst one, let mee know; Such a pilgrimage were sweet; Yet doe not, I would not goe, Though at next door we might meet, Though shee were true, when you met her, And last, till you write your letter, Yet shee Will bee False, ere I come, to two or three.
