English text
- Love is a sickness full of woes,
- All remedies refusing;
- A plant that most with1 cutting grows,
- Most barren with best using,
- Why so?
- More we enjoy it, more it dies;
- If not enjoy'd it sighing cries
- Heigh ho! Heigh ho!
- Love is a torment of the mind,
- A tempest everlasting;
- And Jove hath made it of2 a kind
- Not well, nor full, nor fasting.
- Why so?
Notes:
- 1 Original is "with most"
