John Donne - That Time and Absence proves Rather helps than hurts to loves lyrics

ABSENCE, hear thou my protestation   Against thy strength,   Distance and length: Do what thou canst for alteration,   For hearts of truest mettle   Absence doth join and Time doth settle. Who loves a mistress of such quality,   His mind hath found   Affection's ground Beyond time, place, and all mortality.   To hearts that cannot vary   Absence is present, Time doth tarry. My senses want their outward motion   Which now within   Reason doth win, Redoubled by her secret notion:   Like rich men that take pleasure   In hiding more than handling treasure. By Absence this good means I gain,   That I can catch her   Where none can watch her, In some close corner of my brain:   There I embrace and kiss her,   And so enjoy her and none miss her
