| When I was fair and young, and favor graced me
|
| Of many was I sought their mistress for to be
|
| But I did scorn them all, and answered them therefore
|
| Go, go, seek some otherwhere Importune Me No more
|
| How many weeping eyes I made to pine with woe
|
| How many sighing hearts, I have no skill to show
|
| Yet I the prouder grew and answered them therefore
|
| Go, go, seek some otherwhere Importune Me No more
|
| Then spake fair Venus' son, that proud victorious boy
|
| Who said «Fine dame, in consequence that you have been so coy
|
| I will pluck thy plumes therefore you shall say no more
|
| Go, go, seek some otherwhere Importune Me No more!»
|
| Eftsoones he spake these words, such change grew in my breast
|
| That neither night nor day since then, I could take any rest
|
| Then Lo! |
| I did repent that I had spoken before
|
| Go, go, seek some otherwhere Importune Me No more
|
| Go, go, seek some otherwhere Importune Me No more |
