[Ah such an one I euer was, since that]
Ah
such an one I euer was, since that
My Shepherdesse so cruell I did see,
That now I knowe not who I am, nor what
My hap shall be, or shall become of mee.
My Shepherdesse so cruell I did see,
That now I knowe not who I am, nor what
My hap shall be, or shall become of mee.
I knowe right well that if I were a man,
Greefe had my life consumed long agoe:
And if a stone, I am most certaine then,
That dropping teares had melted me like snowe.
Greefe had my life consumed long agoe:
And if a stone, I am most certaine then,
That dropping teares had melted me like snowe.
Marcelius is my name, who knowes not that?
And I am hers, since first I did her see,
That now I knowe not who I am, nor what
My hap shall be, or shall become of mee.
And I am hers, since first I did her see,
That now I knowe not who I am, nor what
My hap shall be, or shall become of mee.
