COme mourn with me ye Shepherds all, that visit flowry Plains, Whilst I lament in discontent my sorrows and my pains, My Coridon has me forsook, in whom I took delight, And trouble hath me overtook, my days are turn'd to night. I never thought he'd me forskake, while he injoy'd his breath, Some mischief did him overtake, or he's surpriz'd by death: Else could he not be so unkind to leave his Cloris so Perplext and troubled in her mind, surrounded thus with woe.
Into some secret Cave will I most secretly retire, And end my life in misery, and never-ceasing fire, Ile write my Motto for my Tomb, and have it set thereon, And will conclude in little room, Ah faithless Coridon. But could I once be sure again his lovely face to see, I'de banish sorrow, scorn my pain, and slight my misery, I'de sing his praises e'ry where as I went with my Flocks, And Loyalty to him I'de swear amidst the stony Rocks.
But woe is me 'tis now too late such joys e're to obtain, For I am rob'd by cruel fate, which causeth all my pain: Grim death without all question did upon my Shepherd seize, Oh who can such mishaps forbid, or help my sad disease. As she lay in this deep distress just ready to depart, He came to look his Shepherdess, which joy'd her woful heart, So she betwixt both hope and fear fell down all in a swound, She cryed my Coridon, my dear, as she lay on the ground, Why hast thou been unkind to me, where has thou been so long? Thus to increase my misery, and do thy true-love wrong: I never thought thee to behold with my poor watery eyes, That love thee better far then gold, hadst thou but heard my cries.
It would have pierc'd thee to the heart to hear my grievous moan, When thou wer't wandring the Desart, and left me here alone; But Coridon well minding this, was moved much with pitty, And cry'd as he gave her a kiss, thou art too fair, too pretty To be thus us'd, but hear my love, my flocks were gone astray; Which was the cause that did me move to stay so long away: But should my sheep be lost again I'de tarry still with thee, And with my Cloris still remain, that mourned so for me. Betwixt his arms he took her then, and with imbraces sweet These Lovers they did once agen like faithful Lovers meet. Whose looks upon each other then did make them seem as blest, But lo, the night aprroached, when They laid Them down to rest.
