Original text and translations

English text

Trust not too much, fair youth, unto thy feature;
Be not enamoured of thy blushing hue.
Be gamesome whilst thou art a goodly creature;
The flow'rs will fade that in thy garden grew.
Sweet violets are gather'd in their spring,
white primit falls withouten pitying.
