English text
As I beheld, I saw a heardman wild,
with his sheephook a picture fine deface,
which he sometime his fancie to beguild,
had carv’d on barke of beech in secret place,
& with despite of most afflicted minde,
through deepe dispaire, of hart, for love dismaid,
he puld even from the tree, the carved rind,
& weping sore these wofull words he said:
ah Philida, would God thy picture faire,
I could as lightlie blot out of my brest,
then should I not thus rage, with great despight,
& teare the thing sometime I liked best:
but all in vaine, it booteth not god wot,
what printed is in hart, on tree to blot.
