English text
- Dear, if you change
- I'll never choose again,
- sweet, if you shrink
- I'll never think of love,
- Fair, if you fail,
- I'll judge all beauty vain,
- Wise, if too weak,
- more wits i'll never prove.
- Dear, sweet, fair, wise,
- change, shrink, nor be not weak,
- and on my faith
- shall never break.
- Earth with flowers
- shall sooner heav'n adorn,
- heaven her bright stars
- through earths dim globe shall move,
- fire heat shall loose
- and frost of flames be born
- air made to shine
- as black as hell shall prove
- Earth, heaven, fire, air,
- the world transform'd shall be,
- e're I prove false to faith
- or strange to you.
