English text

Lady, when I behold the roses sprouting,

Which clad in damask mantles deck the arbours,

And then behold your lips, where sweet Love harbours,

My eyes present me with a double doubting.

For, viewing both alike, hardly my mind supposes

Whether the roses be your lips or your lips the roses.
