[Lyric] Hot Sun Cool Fire (George Peele)

He draws a curtaine and discovers Bethsabe with her maid, bathing over a spring. She sings, and David sits above, viewing her.

Hot sun, cool fire, tempered with sweet air,
Black shade, fair nurse, shadow my white hair.
Shine, sun; burn, fire; breathe, air, and ease me;
Black shade, fair nurse, shroud me and please me.
Shadow, my sweet nurse, keep me from burning;
Make not my glad cause cause of mourning.
     Let not my beauty's fire
     Inflame unstaid desire,
     Nor pierce any bright eye
     That wandereth lightly.
