French text

Je prends en gré la dure mort,
pour vous madame par amours,
navré m'avez mais à grand tort
dont brief je finiray mes jours.

La chose me vient à rebours,
souffrir si tost la mort amère,
O dure mort, que faictes vous,
mourir me fault, c'est chose claire.

English translation

I will accept a death in pain
For you my dear from love’s malaise,
You’ve wounded me with great disdain
And therefore soon I’ll end my days.

This mess snuck up on me sideways,
To meet so soon a bitter end,
O cruel death, no more delays,
I have to die, let’s not pretend.

Translation by Thomas Daughton
