[XVIII. For verie griefe I dye]

For verie griefe I dye, if that you shew not in your fayre eyes, some signe of grace & pittie, For verie griefe I dye, if that you shew not in your fayre eyes, some signe of grace and pittie, Hate beares a sway so mightie, Hate beares a sway so mightie, That what to doe I know not, But pine with outward anguish, And for your owne sweet sake, my hart doth languish. That what to doe I know not, But pine with outward anguish, And for your owne sweet sake, my hart doth languish. And for your owne sweet sake, my hart doth languish.
