Original text and translations

English text Gush forth, my tears, and stay the burning either of my poor heart, or her eyes: choose you whether. O most peevish fond desire! For out allas! my sighs still blow the fire.

French text Déversez-vous, mes larmes Pour calmer la brûlure, Soit de mon pauvre coeur, Soit de ses yeux : à vous de choisir. O doux désir si obstiné! Car hélas! mes soupirs Soufflent aussi le feu.
