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