Love Will find out the way

Over the mountains
And under the waves
Over the fountains
And under the graves
Over the floods which are the deepest
which do neptune obey
Over rocks which are steepest
Love will find out the way.

Where there is no place
for the glow worm to lie;
where there is no space
for receipt of a fly 
where the gnat she dares not venter
Lest herself fast she lay;
But if love come he will enter
And will find out the way.

You may esteem him 
a child by his force 
or you may deem him
A coward which is worse
but if he whom love doth honour
Be concealed from the day
set a thousand guards upon him
love will find out the way.

Some think to loose him
which is too unkind
And some do suppose him
poor heart to be blind
If that he were hidden
do the best that you may
Blind love, if so you call him
will find out the way. 
Well may the eagle 
stoop down to fist
Or you may inveigle
the phoenix of the east
with fear the tigers moved
to give over his prey 
but never stop a lover
He will post on his way.

From dover to berwick
And nations throughout
Brave guy of warwick
that champion so stout
with his warlike behavior
through the world he did stray
to win his phyllis favour 
love will find a way

In order next enters
Bevis so brave
After adventures
and policy grave
to see whom he desired
his josian so gay
For whom his heart was fired
Love found out the way.

The gordian knot 
which true lovers knit 
Undo you cannot
Nor yet break it
Make use of your inventions
To frustrate your intentions
Love will find out the way.

From court to the cottage
In bower and in the hall
from the king unto the beggar
Love conquers all
Though ne'er so stout and lordly
strive do what you may
yet be you ne'er so hardy
Love will find out the way.

Love hath power over princes 
and greatest emperor 
In any provinces
Such is loves power
there is no reisiting
But him to obey 
In spite of all contesting 
Love will find out the way.

If that he were hidden
and all men that are
Were strictly forbidden
That place to declare
Winds that have no abidings
Pitying their delay
Will come and bring him tidings
And direct him the way. 

If earth should part him 
He would gallop it o'er 
If the seas should o'erthwart him
He would swim to shore;
Should his love become a swallow,
Through the air to stray
Love would lend wings to follow
and will find out the way.

There is no striving to 
cross his intent
There is not contriving
his plots to prevent 
but if once the message greet him
If death should come and meet him
Love will find out the way.
