Rhyme Scheme: AABCDCEEEE AAEFEFEEEE AAGHGHEEEE HHGHGHEEEE

Ring out your bells let mourning shows be spreadA
For Love is deadA
All love is dead infectedB
With plague of deep disdainC
Worth as nought worth rejectedD
And Faith fair scorn doth gainC
From so ungrateful fancyE
From such a female franzyE
From them that use men thusE
Good Lord deliver usE
-
Weep neighbours weep do you not hear it saidA
That Love is deadA
His death bed peacock's follyE
His winding sheet is shameF
His will false seeming holyE
His sole exec'tor blameF
From so ungrateful fancyE
From such a female franzyE
From them that use men thusE
Good Lord deliver usE
-
Let dirge be sung and trentals rightly readA
For Love is deadA
Sir Wrong his tomb ordainethG
My mistress' marble heartH
Which epitaph containethG
quot Her eyes were once his dart quotH
From so ungrateful fancyE
From such a female franzyE
From them that use men thusE
Good Lord deliver usE
-
Alas I lie rage hath this error bredH
Love is not deadH
Love is not dead but sleepethG
In her unmatched mindH
Where she his counsel keepethG
Till due desert she findH
Therefore from so vile fancyE
To call such wit a franzyE
Who Love can temper thusE
Good Lord deliver usE

Sir Philip Sidney
