Magdalene College - Pepys
Repentance too Late: / Being fair Celia's complaint of the loss of her Virginity. / OR, The wronged Love finds no cure but Death. / Being a pleasant new play Song: As it is sung at the Theater / Fair Celia's kind and trusts too much her Swain, / Who once Enjoying her returns disdain, / Courts other Virgins and neglects her quite / What love he had is turned now to spite. / For which she grieves as her too quick belief / And warns all Virgins by her doleful grief, / How to beware of man whose false surprize, / Had ruin'd her then lies her down and dyes.
