She is faithless and I am undone, Ye that witness the woes I endure, Let reason instruct you to shun What it cannot instruct you to cure. Beware how you loiter in vain Amid nymphs of an higher degree; It is not for me to explain How fair and how fickle they be. O ye woods, spread your branches apace, To your deepest recesses I fly; I would hide with the beasts of the chase, I would vanish from every eye; Yet my reed shall resound through the grove, With the same sad complaint it begun; How she smiled, and I could not but love, Is faithless and I am undone.
