My smiles and languish'd air | B |
By Love are driven away | A |

Brings me yew to deck my grave | C |
Such end true lovers have | D |

His face is fair as heaven | E |
When springing buds unfold | F |

Whose heart is wintry cold | F |
His breast is Love's all worshipp'd tomb | G |
Where all Love's pilgrims come | H |

Bring me an axe and spade | I |
Bring me a winding sheet | J |
When I my grave have made | I |
Let winds and tempests beat | J |
Then down I'll lie as cold as clay | A |
True love doth pass away | A |
