Susanna fair some time of love requested,  
by suitors false, whom her sweet looks allur'd,  
was in her heart full sad and sore molested,  
feeling such force of bitterness endur'd,  
to them she said: If I by craft procur'd  
do yield to your request with grief and sighing,
do yield to your request with grief and sighing,
I lose my soul, yet hap your plaint denying,  
I lose my soul, yet hap your plaint denying,
you will me judge to death reproachfully,
you will me judge to death reproachfully,
but rather would I keep innocence,  
but rather would I keep innocence,
e'en dying, than live in fault,  
e'en dying, than live in fault,
to offend my God on high.
to offend my God on high.}}

Susanna fair some time of love requested,
by suitors false, whom her sweet looks allur'd,
was in her heart full sad and sore molested,
feeling such force of bitterness endur'd,
to them she said: If I by craft procur'd
do yield to your request with grief and sighing,
I lose my soul, yet hap your plaint denying,
you will me judge to death reproachfully,
but rather would I keep innocence,
e'en dying, than live in fault,
to offend my God on high.
