“Clorinda false, adieu thy love torments me; | |||
Let Thyrsis have thy heart | |||
Since he contents thee | |||
O grief and bitter anguish, | |||
for thee I languish. | |||
fain I alas would hide it. | |||
O but who can abide it? | |||
I can, I cannot I abide it. | |||
Adieu, adieu, adieu then, | |||
farewell leave me, | |||
death now desiring, | |||
thou hast, lo, thy requiring.” | |||
Thus spake Philistus on his hook relying, | |||
and sweetly, sweetly, sweet fell adying. | |||

“Clorinda false, adieu thy love torments me;
Let Thyrsis have thy heart
Since he contents thee
O grief and bitter anguish,
for thee I languish.
fain I alas would hide it.
O but who can abide it?
I can, I cannot I abide it.
Adieu, adieu, adieu then,
farewell leave me,
death now desiring,
thou hast, lo, thy requiring.”
Thus spake Philistus on his hook relying,
and sweetly, sweetly, sweet fell adying.
