〈♫〉〈♫〉OF ioyes, & pleasing paines, I late went singing: Of ioyes & 〈♫〉〈♫〉pleasing paines, I late went singing, O ioyes with paines, O ioyes with paines, O 〈♫〉〈♫〉paines with ioyes consenting: And little thought as then of now repenting: {repeat} 〈♫〉〈♫〉But now, think of my thē sweet bitter stinging: All day long, 〈♫〉〈♫〉I my hands, Alas, Alas, Alas goe wringing, All day long I my hands Alas, A- 〈♫〉〈♫〉las goe wringing: The balefull notes, of which my sad tormenting, Are ruth and 〈♫〉〈♫〉mone, frights, sobs, & loud lamenting, From hills and dales, From hills and dales, in 〈♫〉〈♫〉my dull eares still ringing. {repeat}
