withhold_v i_o from_o my_o love_n and_o eke_o my_o love_n from_o i_o i_o hate_v the_o earth_n because_o it_o be_v the_o mould_n of_o fleshly_a slime_n and_o frail_a mortality_n i_o hate_v the_o fire_n because_o to_o nought_o it_o fly_v i_o hate_v the_o air_n because_o fighe_n of_o it_o be_v i_o hate_v the_o sea_n because_o it_o tear_n supply_v i_o hate_v the_o day_n because_o it_o dare_v light_a to_o see_v all_o thing_n and_o not_o my_o love_n to_o see_v i_o hate_v the_o darkness_n and_o the_o dreary_a night_n because_o they_o breed_v sad_a balefulnesse_n in_o i_o i_o hate_v all_o time_n because_o all_o time_n do_v fly_v so_o fast_o away_o and_o may_v not_o stay_v be_v but_o as_o aspeedie_a post_n that_o pass_v by_o i_o hate_v to_o speak_v my_o voice_n be_v spend_v with_o cry_v i_o

no_o sweet_a on_o earth_n be_v leave_v i_o hate_v to_o feel_v my_o flesh_n be_v numb_v with_o fear_n so_o all_o my_o sense_n from_o i_o be_v bereave_v i_o hate_v all_o man_n and_o shun_v all_o

hate_v because_o it_o will_v not_o last_v and_o death_n i_o hate_v because_o it_o life_n do_v mar_v and_o all_o i_o hate_v that_o be_v to_o come_v or_o pass_v so_o all_o the_o world_n and_o all_o in_o it_o i_o hate_v because_o it_o change_v ever_o too_o and_o fro_o and_o never_o stand_v in_o one_o certain_a state_n but_o still_o unsteadfast_a round_o about_o do_v go_v like_o a_o mill_n wheel_n in_o midst_n of_o misery_n drive_v with_o stream_n of_o wretchedness_n and_o woe_n that_o die_a life_n and_o live_v still_o do_v die_v so_o do_v i_o live_v so_o do_v i_o daily_a die_v and_o pine_v away_o in_o self-consuming_a pain_n sith_o she_o that_o do_v my_o vital_a power_n supply_v and_o feeble_a spirit_n in_o their_o force_n maintain_v be_v fetch_v from_o i_o why_o seek_v i_o to_o prolong_v my_o weary_a day_n in_o dolour_n and_o disdain_n weep_v shepheard_n weep_v to_o make_v my_o undersong_n 6_o why_o do_v i_o long_o live_v in_o life_n despite_n and_o do_v not_o die_v then_o in_o despite_n of_o death_n why_o do_v i_o long_o see_v this_o loathsome_a light_n and_o do_v in_o darkness_n not_o abridge_v my_o breath_n sith_o all_o my_o sorrow_n shall_v have_v end_n thereby_o and_o care_n find_v quiet_a be_v it_o so_o uneath_a to_o leave_v this_o life_n or_o dolorous_a to_o die_v to_o live_v i_o find_v it_o deadly_a dolorous_a for_o life_n draw_v care_n and_o care_v continual_a woe_n therefore_o to_o die_v must_v needs_o be_v joyous_a and_o wishfull_a thing_n this_o fad_a life_n to_o forgo_v but_o i_o must_v stay_v i_o may_v it_o not_o amend_v my_o daphne_n hence_o depart_v bid_v
