〈♫〉〈♫〉I Know not what. ii. yet that I 〈♫〉〈♫〉〈♫〉〈♫〉feele is much, it came I know not when, it was not euer yet 〈♫〉〈♫〉〈♫〉〈♫〉hurtes I know not how, yet is it such as I am pleasd .ii. .ii. though 〈♫〉〈♫〉〈♫〉〈♫〉it be cured neuer It is a wound .ii. that wasteth 〈♫〉〈♫〉〈♫〉〈♫〉still in woe and yet I would not, that it were not so. 〈♫〉〈♫〉

Pleasde with a thought that endeth with a sigh,Sometimes I smile when teares stand in my eyes,Yet then and there such sweet contentment lieth,Both when and where my sweet sower torment lies,O out alas, I cannot long endure it,And yet alasse I care not when I cure it.
3
But well away, me thinks I am not shee,That wonted was these fits as soule to scorne.One and the same, euen so I seeme to be,As lost I liue, yet of my selfe forlorne,What may this be that thus my mind doth moue,Alasse I feare, God shield it be not loue.
