How great delight from those sweet lips I taste
How great delight from those sweet lips I taste
Whether I hear them speak, or feel them kiss!
Whether I hear them speak, or feel them kiss!

With one of them, the other straight I miss.
With one of them, the other straight I miss.
Love, since thou canst do wonders, heap my blisses
Love, since thou canst do wonders, heap my blisses
And grant her kissing words, or speaking kisses.
And grant her kissing words, or speaking kisses.}}

How great delight from those sweet lips I taste
Whether I hear them speak, or feel them kiss!
Only this want I have, that being graced
With one of them, the other straight I miss.
Love, since thou canst do wonders, heap my blisses
And grant her kissing words, or speaking kisses.
