Thomas: With regard to poems in English, you should take a look at the program and videos from the performance by Ronn McFarlane and Robert Aubry Davis last Summer at the LSA Summer Seminar and Lute Festival. Mr. Davis read sections from eleven different poems that mention the lute. Some are quotations from Shakespeare plays (I am sure you do not want to post the whole document for those (-;), and some are well known to the lute community because they are the texts of lutesongs.
The main page for the program is here, with MP3 files so you can hear some of the readings: http://www.cs.dartmouth.edu/~lsa/old/Cleveland2010/McFarlaneConcert/index .html The full texts of the poems "Blame not my lute" and "Objections Against the Immortality of the Soule" are here: http://www.cs.dartmouth.edu/~lsa/old/Cleveland2010/McFarlaneConcert/Texts .html Videos of "Blame not My Lute" http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=R3GYM8b7L8Q and "Objections" http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=R3GYM8b7L8Q Feel free to reference these pages.
