The Unfortunate Lover.
1
I that Amorea loved,I who in her love delighted,
I, poor I, am disapproved,
I, and only I, am slighted.
2
I which in her love did glory,I am he that once was blessed,
I can speak the saddest story
I in Love have found expressed.
3
I that thought the time was wasted,I mispended from her presence,
In sad farewell have tasted,
I alas have lost my Essence.
4
I the Wretch whom Love hath smitten,I by love was ne're befriended,
I that sometime Love have written,
I have done for Love is ended.
