[At moost myschief]
At moost myschief
I suffre greif
For of relief
Syns I have none
My lute and I
Continuelly
Shall vs apply
To sigh and mone.

Nought may prevaill
To wepe or waill
Pitie doeth faill
In you Alas
Morning or mone
Complaint or none
It is all one
As in this case.

For crueltie
Moost that can be
Hath soveraynte
Within your hert
Which maketh bare
All my welfare
Nought do ye care
How sore I smart.

No Tigres hert
Is so pervert
Withoute dessert
To wreke his Ire
And you me kyll
For my good will
Lo how I spill
For my desire!

Withoute dessert
To wreke his Ire
And you me kyll
For my good will
Lo how I spill
For my desire!
There is no love
That can ye move
And I can prove
None othre way;
Therefore I must
Restrain my lust
Banisshe my trust
And welth away.

Thus in myschief
I suffre greif
For of relief
Syns I have none,
My lute and I
Continuelly
Shall vs apply
To sigh and mone.
