[If to belou'd it thee offends] |

[If to belou'd it thee offends]
If
to belou'd it thee offends,
I cannot choose but loue thee still:
And so thy greefe shall haue no end,
Whiles that my life maintaines my will.
I cannot choose but loue thee still:
And so thy greefe shall haue no end,
Whiles that my life maintaines my will.
O let me yet with greefe complaine,
Since such a torment I endure:
Or else fulfill thy great disdaine,
To end my life with death most sure.
For as no credit thou wilt lend,
And as my loue offendes thee still,
So shall thy sorrowes haue no end
Whiles that my life maintaines my will.
Since such a torment I endure:
Or else fulfill thy great disdaine,
To end my life with death most sure.
For as no credit thou wilt lend,
And as my loue offendes thee still,
So shall thy sorrowes haue no end
Whiles that my life maintaines my will.
If that by knowing thee, I could
Leaue of to loue thee as I doe,
Not to offend thee, then I would
Leaue of to like and loue thee too,
But since all loue to thee doth tend,
And I of force must loue thee still,
Thy greefe shall neuer haue an end,
Whiles that my life maintaines my will.
Leaue of to loue thee as I doe,
Not to offend thee, then I would
Leaue of to like and loue thee too,
But since all loue to thee doth tend,
And I of force must loue thee still,
Thy greefe shall neuer haue an end,
Whiles that my life maintaines my will.
