English text
No grief is like to mine,
Which naught but death can swage.
My help is hurt; my weal is woe;
My rest is ruthless rage.
My comfort is my care;
My safety shipwreck is.
My medicine is my misery,
And bale is all my bliss.
Farewell, my friendly foe!
Pandolpho proud, farewell!
Farewell the causer of my woe!
I love, and loathe to live,
I live and long to die.
Come death, dispatch her life,
She yield, to die;
Come death, dispatch her life,
She doth desire to die.
