When to my deadly pleasureA
When to my lively tormentB
Lady mine eyes remainedC
Joined alas to your beamsD
-
With violence of heavenlyE
Beauty tied to virtueF
Reason abashed retiredG
Gladly my senses yieldedH
-
Gladly my senses yieldingI
Thus to betray my heart's fortJ
Left me devoid of all lifeK
-
They to the beamy suns wentB
Where by the death of all deathsL
Find to what harm they hastenedM
-
Like to the silly SylvanN
Burned by the light he best likedO
When with a fire he first metP
-
Yet yet a life to their deathQ
Lady you have reservedR
Lady the life of all loveS
-
For though my sense be from meE
And I be dead who want senseT
Yet do we both live in youF
-
Turned anew by your meansU
Unto the flower that aye turnsV
As you alas my sun bendsW
-
Thus do I fall to rise thusX
Thus do I die to live thusX
Changed to a change I change notY
-
Thus may I not be from youF
Thus be my senses on youF
Thus what I think is of youF
Thus what I seek is in youF
All what I am it is youF
