English.png English text

In dew of roses, steeping
her lovely cheeks, Lycoris
thus sat weeping.

Ah Dorus false,
that hast my heart bereft me,
and now unkind hast left me:

hear, alas hear O hear me;
ay me, cannot my beauty move thee?
Pity then, pity me because I love thee.

Ay me, thou scornst the more I pray thee,
and this thou dost to slay me.

But do, ah do, then do kill me and vaunt thee.
Yet my ghost still shall haunt thee.
