  Draw on, sweet night
  by John Wilbye (1609)
  
  Draw on, sweet night
  Best friend unto those cares
  that do arise from painful melancholy
  My life's so ill from want of comfort fares
  that unto to thee I concentrate it wholly
  
  Sweet night, draw on
  
  My griefs, when they be told
  to shades and darkness
  find some ease from paining
  And while thou all in silence dost enfold,
  I then shall have best time for my complaining.  less
