Dear, when I from thee am gone, Gone are all my joys at once!
I loved thee, and thee alone, In whose love I joyed once.
While I live I needs must love, Love lives not when life is gone : |
Now, at last, despair doth prove Love divided loveth none.
And although your sight I leave, Sight wherein my joys do lie,
Till that death do sense bereave, Never shall affection die.
