TO HYSE HAUGHTIE MYSTRESSE WHO, IN SCORNYNG HYME, HATH CAUSED HYME GRIEVOUS PAYNE

Ah me! that Fayte shoulde be so cruelle, Shoulde leave me thus berefte . Myne eyes havve shedde a tearfulle poole, Since th' accursed thefte

Of thee, of thee, my deareste dove, Of thee, my erstwhile tender love .

Ah cruelle 1 to spume thy lovyng swayne 1 Undo, I praye, thys grievous wronge. Thy smyle fromme one will ease the payne Whose aching harte beats all day longe

For thee, for thee, thou nymphe sublime, For thee, thou pearle of flowre-tyme .

Ah woe 1 that one so false and meane

Should take my playce within thy heartel

Come, lovelye one, come be my queene, And I shall never never parte

Frorri thee, from thee, my gentyle spryte , From thee, my gracious queene of lyghte.
