Wherefore sit I complaining,
Wherefore sit I complaining,<br>
With sobs and groanings, out alas, my disdaining?
sobs and groanings, out, alas, my disdaining?<br>
Never this mirth contents me,
Never this mirth contents me,<br>
When grief of mind torments me.
when grief of mind torments me,<br>
But cease this weeping, fool, she does but prove thee;
but cease this weeping, fool,<br>
Comfort false, hence away, for thou canst not move me.
she does but prove thee;<br>
And you that saw too much, mine eyes, shall dearly buy it.
comfort false, hence, away,<br>
Still thus to weep forever  
for thou cans't not move me,<br>
your fountains shall persever.
and you that saw too much,<br>
O eyes that did espy it.
mine eyes, shall dearly buy it.<br>
False comfort, hence, for thou canst never ease me;
Still thus to weep forever <br>
Away, I say, thou canst not please me.
your fountains shall persevere.<br>
Phyllis, I cry, for want of dying
O eyes that did espy it.<br>
See, I die.}}
False comfort, hence,<br>
for thou cans't never ease me,<br>
away, I say, thou cans't not please me.<br>
Phyllis, I cry, for want of dying.

Wherefore sit I complaining,
With sobs and groanings, out alas, my disdaining?
Never this mirth contents me,
When grief of mind torments me.
But cease this weeping, fool, she does but prove thee;
Comfort false, hence away, for thou canst not move me.
And you that saw too much, mine eyes, shall dearly buy it.
Still thus to weep forever
your fountains shall persever.
O eyes that did espy it.
False comfort, hence, for thou canst never ease me;
Away, I say, thou canst not please me.
Phyllis, I cry, for want of dying
See, I die.
