I wish to fire the trees of all these forrests I give the sunne a last farewell each evening I curse the fidling finders out of musicke With envie I doo hate the loftie mountaines And with despise the humble vallies I doo detest night, evening, day, and morning
For she, whose parts maintained a perfect musique Whose beawties shin'de more then the blushing morning Who much did passe in state the stately mountaines In straightnes past the cedars of the forrests Hath cast me wretch into eternall evening By taking her two sunnes from these darke vallies
Curse to my selfe my prayer is, the morning My fire is more then can be made with forrests My state more base then are the basest vallies I wish no evenings more to see, each evening Shamed I hate my selfe in sight of mountaines And stoppe mine ears, lest I growe mad with musicke
For she, with whom compar'd, the Alpes are vallies She, whose lest word brings from the spheares their musique At whose approach the sunne rase in the evening Who, where she went, bare in her forhead morning Is gone, is gone from these our spoyled forrests Turning to desarts our best pastur'de mountainesTeksty umieszczone na naszej stronie są własnością wytwórni, wykonawców, osób mających do nich prawa.
