Original text and translations
- Faire, sweet, cruell, why doest thou flie mee,
- Goe not, oh goe not from thy deerest,
- Though thou doest hasten I am nie thee,
- When thou see'mst farre then am I neerest,
- O tarrie then and take me with you.
- Fie, fie, sweetest here is no danger,
- Flie not, oh flie not loue pursues thee,
- I am no foe, nor forraine stranger,
- Thy scornes with fresher hope renewes me,
- Tarrie then, &c.
