Wyth sorowful syghes and woundes smart

my hart ys persed sodaynly

to morne off ryght yt ys my part

to wepe to wayle full greuously



the bytter teres dothe me constrayne [5]

all tho that I wold not yt eschew

to wyte off them that dothe dysdayne

faythfull louers that be so trew



The one of us from the other they do absent

wych unto us ys a dedly wond [10]

seyng we loue in thys yntent

yn gods laws for to be bownd



wyth syghes depe my harte ys prest

duryng off great paynes among

to see her dayly whom I loue best [15]

yn great and untollerable sorows strong



ther doth not lyue no louyng hurt

but wyll lament ower greuous woo

and pray to god to ease owre smart

and shortly together that we may goo.
