about

Madrigal by John Dowland (there are various interpretations on this amusing text)

lyrics

Fine knacks for ladies, cheap, choice, brave and new!
Good pennyworths - but money cannot prove.
I keep a fair but for the fair to view.
A beggar may be liberal of love.
Though all my wares be trash,
the heart is true,
The heart is true.

Great gifts are guiles and look for gifts again;
My trifles come as treasures from my mind.
It is a precious jewel to be plain.
Sometimes in shell the orient's pearl we find.
Of others take a sheaf,
of me a grain.
Of me a grain.

Within this pack pins, points, laces and gloves,
And divers toys fitting a country fair;
But in my heart, where duty serves and loves,
Turtles and twins, court's brood, a heavenly pair.
Happy the heart that thinks
of no removes!
Of no removes
