Original text and translations

French text Ayez pitié du grand mal que je endure Pour vous servir, sans me vouloir blasmer; Amour vous peult comme moy faire aymer, Et du passé faire payer le usure.

English translation Have pity at the torment I endure To serve you, and do not seek to chide me, Love could also cause love to grow in thee, And thus full payment for the past ensure. Translation by Thomas Daughton
