ALas my harte doth boyle, and burne within my breste: To showe to thee myne onely deere, my sute and sure request. My love no toung can tell, ne pen can well descrye: Extend thy Love for love againe? Or els for Love I dye.
My love is set so suer, And fixed on thee so: That by no meanes I can abstaine, My faythfull love to showe, My wounded harte theirfore: To thee for helpe doth crye: Extend thy love for love againe, Or else for love I dye. Although the Gods were bent, With greedie mynde to slaye: My corpes with cruell panges of death, And lyfe to take awaye. yet should my faythfull harte, At no tyme from thee flye: Show love therfore for love againe, Or els for love I dye. Although the Sun were bent, To burne me with his beames: and that mine eyes throw grevos pangs, Should send forth bloudy streames. yet would I not forsake, But styll to thee woulde crye: To showe me love for love againe, Or els for love I dye. ye though ech sterre were tournd, Untyll a fiery darte: And were all ready bent with payne, To perce throwe out my harte. yet coulde I not forsake, To love thee faythfullye, Extend thy love for love againe, Or els for love I dye. ye though eche foule were formde, A Serpent fell to be:
My corps to slay with bloudy wounds, And to devower me. yet would I be thine owne, To love full hartelye: Extend thy love for love againe, Or els for love I dye. ye though the Lyon were, with gapinge gredye Jawe: Readye with rygorus raggye teeth, My fleshe to teare and gnawe. yet woulde I be thine owne, To serve most earnestlye: Extend thy love, for love againe, Or els for love I dye. ye though the fishes all, That swymes in surginge sease: should swallowe me with gredy mouth yet could thee not apease. My earnest harte to thee, To love entyerlye: Extend thy love, for love againe, Or els for love I dye. ye though the earth would gape, And swallowe me therein: And that I should tormentyd be, In hell with every syn. yet would I be thy owne, To save or els to spyll: Show me therfore lyke love againe Or els thou dost me kyll.
