Alas so all thinges nowe doe holde their peace.Heauen and earth disturbed in nothing:The beastes, the ayer, the birdes their song doe cease:The nightes chare the starres aboute dothe bring:Calme is the Sea, the waues worke lesse and lesse:So am not I, whom loue alas doth wring,Bringing before my face the great encreaseOf my desires, whereat I wepe and syng,In ioye and wo, as in a doubtful ease.For my swete thoughtes sometyme doe pleasure bring:But, by and by, the cause of my diseaseGeues me a pang, that inwardly dothe sting,When that I thinke what griefe it is againe,To Hue and lacke the thing should ridde my paine.
