¶Lyrics / Text

Die now, my heart from thy delight exiled: thy love is dead and all our hope beguiled. O Death, unkind and cruel, to rob the world so of that her fairest jewel. Now shoot at me, now shoot and spare not, kill me I care not. Think not, O Death, alas thy dart shall pain me; why shouldst thou here against my will retain me? O hear a doleful wretches crying, or I die, I die for want of dying.
