[XI. Life tell mee, what is the cause of each mans dying]

Life tell mee, what is the cause of each mans dying, carefull griefe mixt with crieng? No no hart stay thee, Let no such thought or care of mind dismay thee, or care of mind dismay thee, let no such thought or care of mind dismay thee, Sweet hart content thee, Thy cares are so great, I can but lament thee. I can but lament thee, Thy cares are so great, I can but lament thee.
