Despiteful thus unto myself, I languish,
Despiteful thus unto myself, I languish,
And in disdain, myself from joy I banish,
And in disdain, myself from joy I banish,

And to some rest will quickly be conveyed,
And to some rest will quickly be conveyed,
That on no joy, while so I liv’d, hath stayed.
That on no joy, while so I liv’d, hath stayed.

Despiteful thus unto myself, I languish,
And in disdain, myself from joy I banish,
These secret thoughts enwrap me so in anguish,
That life, I hope. will soon from body vanish;
And to some rest will quickly be conveyed,
That on no joy, while so I liv’d, hath stayed.
