Phillis is my only joy / Charles Sedley

Phillis is my only joy
Phillis is my only joy Faithless as the winds or seas, Sometimes cunning, sometimes coy, Yet she never fails to please; If with a frown I am cast down, Phillis smiling And beguiling Makes me happier than before. Though alas! too late I find Nothing can her fancy fix, Yet the moment she is kind I forgive her with her tricks; Which though I see, I can’t get free,— She deceiving, I believing,— What need lovers wish for more.
