She Hath an Eye (Iones 1609 [Tk3
Please hold judgment on this till my finished recording of this is out; maybe in the summer. This 'Take 3' is really the leftover that I won't do a vocal on. However, I am glad to be working on at least one song from 'A Musical Dreame or the Fourth B
Elisha Zaporelostzi's first performances were the Open Stages put on by the Bytown Live in Ottawa Ontario, Canada. It is how Neil Young and Joni Mitchell started.
Phreap magazine is a one page thing that went around Ottawa in the 1980s. Now it is a web site;

With the help of Joe-Charly Smith, Molly Ding, Calhoon-Fred Febealie, and Butter Jones I was able to put out Phreap magazine.
Story behind the song
- In cerebration of the 400 year anniversary of publication -
A Musical Dreame or the Fourth Booke of Ayres 1609
This is a very new song for me which I had never tried to play before this year, the 400 year anniversary of its publication.
This 'Take 3' is really the leftover that I thought I would stop working on since it seems to be my poorest 'Take' which I may not get to do a vocal on because my Zip disc, that I am using, is running out of memory.
I did 4 'takes' and I may not finish recording this song until the summer. However I have missed the three 400 year anniversaries of Robert Jones' first three Bookes and am glad to be working on at least one song from "A Musical Dreame or the Fourth Booke of Ayres 1609".
For this 'Take 3'The rhythm guitar was laid down on April 8, 2009 and the Grand Piano keyboard bass track was added April 13. The Grand Piano.keyboard for a guide vocal (that may not be) was done on Friday, April 17, 2009 in the recording.
This April 2009 I actually did manage to finally post a rough start of a page about "A Musical Dreame or the Fourth Booke of Ayres 1609" on my web site;

Lyrics
XII. SHE HATH AN EYE
1
She hath an eye, ah me, ah me,
She hath an eye, ah me, to see,
Ah me that shee hath too
Which makes me sigh as louers doe, hey hoe, hey hoe
Hey hoe, ah me, that an eye
Should make her liue and mee to die.
Wise mens eyes are in their mind,
But louers eyes are euer blind.
2
She hath a lippe, ah, ah, alas,
Two lippes wich doe themselues surpasse,
Alasse two lips for kisses,
Of earthly loue that heauenly blisses, hey hoe, hey hoe
Alasse, oh woe that a heauen,
Should make vs ods that make all euen.
Ladies kisses are a charme,
That kill vs ere they doe vs harme.
3
She hath a heart, ah me, ah me,
A heart she hath which none can see,
Ah me that I haue none,
Which makes me sigh, yea sighing grone, hey hoe, hey hoe
Hey hoe, aye me, that I part,
And liue, yet leaue with her my heart.
Hartlesse men may hue by loue,
This she doth know and this I proue.
