Æl.Didst thou know how my woes, as stars ybrent,
Headed by these thy words, do on me fall,
Thou wouldest strive to give my heart content,

Of happiness, I prize thee more than all
Heaven can me send, or cunning wit acquire;
Yet will I leave thee, on the foe to fall,
Returning to thine eyes with double fire.
Ber.
Must Bertha boon request, and be denied?
Receive at once a dart, in happiness and pride?
