PRESENTATION OUTLINE

The passionate Shepherd To His Love

Christopher Marlowe

Come live with me and be my love

And we will all the pleasures prove



That valleys, groves, hills, and fields


Woods, or steepy mountains yield.

And we will sit upon the rocks,

Seeing the shepherds feed their flocks,

By shallow rivers to whose falls


Melodious birds sing madrigals.

And i will make thee beds of roses

And a thousand fragrant posies,

A cap of flowers, and a kirtle

Embroidered with leaves of myrtle;

A gown made of the finest wool

Which from our pretty lambs pull;

Fair lined slippers for the cold,

With buckles of the finest gold;

A belt of straw and ivy buds.

With coral clasps and amber studs:

And if these pleasures may thee move

Come live with me and be my love.

The shepherds' swains shall dance and sing

For thy delight each May morning:

If these delights thy mind may move

Then live with me and be my love.
