Good CD Guide

Tracks:

Unquiet thoughts
Who ever thinks or hopes of love
My thoughts are wing'd with hopes
If my complaints
Can she excuse my wrongs
Now, O now, I needs must part
Dear, if you change
Burst forth my tears
Go crystal tears
Think'st thou then by thy feigning
Come away, come sweet love
Rest awhile, you cruel cares
Sleep, wayward thoughts
All ye, whom Love or Fortune
Wilt thou unkind thus reave me
Would my conceit
Come again: sweet love doth now invite
His golden locks
Awake, sweet love
Come, heavy sleep
Away with these self-loving lads
