FAR FROM HIS BELOVED LIFE IS MISERABLE BY NIGHT AS BY DAY | A |

- | |
Never was bird spoil'd of its young more sad | A |
Or wild beast in his lair more lone than me | B |
Now that no more that lovely face I see | B |
The only sun my fond eyes ever had | A |
In ceaseless sorrow is my chief delight | A |
My food to poison turns to grief my joy | C |
The night is torture dark the clearest sky | D |
And my lone pillow a hard field of fight | A |
Sleep is indeed as has been well express'd | A |
Akin to death for it the heart removes | E |
From the dear thought in which alone I live | F |
Land above all with plenty beauty bless'd | A |
Ye flowery plains green banks and shady groves | G |
Ye hold the treasure for whose loss I grieve | H |
