| Most cruelly distrains my hart | B |
| When that my teares as floudes of rayne | A |
| Beare witnes of my wofull smart | B |
| When sighes haue wasted so my breath | C |
| That I lye at the poynte of death | C |
| - | |
| I call to minde the nauye greate | B |
| That the Grekes brought to Troye towne | D |
| And how the boysteous windes did beate | B |

| Full many a bloudye dede was done | D |
| And many a lord that came full farre | E |
| There caught his bane alas to sone | D |
| And many a good knight ouerronne | D |
| Before the Grekes had Helene wonne | D |

| Then thinke I thus sithe suche repayre | E |
| So longe time warre of valiant men | D |
| Was all to winne a ladye fayre | E |
| Shall I not learne to suffer then | D |
| And thinke my life well spent to be | F |
| Seruyng a worthier wight than she | F |
| - | |
| Therfore I neuer will repent | B |
| But paynes contented stil endure | E |
| For like as when rough winter spent | B |
| The pleasant spring straight draweth in vre | E |
| So after ragyng stormes of care | E |
| Joyful at length may be my fare | E |
