¶Lyrics / Text

My throat is sore, my voice is hoarse with skriking, My rests are sighs, deep from the heart’s root fetched; My song runs all on sharps, and with oft striking Time on my breast, I shrink with hands outstretched; Thus still, and still I sing, and ne’er am linning, For still the close points to my first beginning.
