Now I see thy looks were feigned,
<poem>
Quickly lost and quickly gained.
Now I see thy looks were feigned,  
Soft thy skin like wool of wethers,
Quickly lost and quickly gained.  
Heart unconstant, light as feathers.
Soft thy skin like wool of wethers,  
Tongue untrusty, subtle-sighted,
Heart unconstant, light as feathers.  
Tongue untrusty, subtle-sighted,  
Wanton will with change delighted.
Wanton will with change delighted.

From thy beauty came my error;

All thy words I counted witty,

All thy sighs I deemed pity;
All thy sighs I deemed pity;
Thy false tears that me aggrieved  
Thy false tears that me aggrieved
First of all my trust deceived.

Now I see thy looks were feigned,
Quickly lost and quickly gained.
Soft thy skin like wool of wethers,
Heart unconstant, light as feathers.
Tongue untrusty, subtle-sighted,
Wanton will with change delighted.

R.: Siren pleasant, foe to reason,
Cupid plague thee for thy treason.

Of thine eye I made my mirror,
From thy beauty came my error;
All thy words I counted witty,
All thy sighs I deemed pity;
Thy false tears that me aggrieved
First of all my trust deceived.
R.

Feign'd acceptance when I asked,
Lovely words with cunning masked,
Holy vows but heart unholy
Wretched man! my trust was folly.
Lily-white and pretty winking,
Solemn vows, but sorry thinking.
R.

Now I see, O seemly cruel,
Others warm them at my fuel.
Wit shall guide me in this durance
Since in love is no assurance.
Change thy pasture, take thy pleasure,
Beauty is a fading treasure.
R.

Prime youth lasts not, age will follow,
And make white those tresses yellow;
Wrinkled face for looks delightful
Shall acquaint the dame despiteful;
And when time shall date thy glory
Then too late thou wilt be sorry.
R.
