Come, woeful Orpheus, with thy charming Lyre,<br>
Come wofull ''Orpheus'' with thy charming Lyre,<br>
And tune my voice unto thy skillful wire.<br>
And tune my voyce unto thy skilfull wyre,<br>
Some strange chromatic notes do you devise,<br>
Some strange Cromatique Notes doe you devise,<br>
That best with mournful accents sympathize.<br>
That best with mournefull accents sympathize,<br>
Of sourest sharps and uncouth flats make choice,<br>
Of sowrest Sharps, and uncouth Flats make choise,<br>
And I’ll thereto compassionate my voice.
And Ile thereto compassionate my voyce.

Come wofull Orpheus with thy charming Lyre,
And tune my voyce unto thy skilfull wyre,
Some strange Cromatique Notes doe you devise,
That best with mournefull accents sympathize,
Of sowrest Sharps, and uncouth Flats make choise,
And Ile thereto compassionate my voyce.
