Original text and translations

French text Or suis je bien au pire de mes malheureulx jours: mon cas fort trop sempire et me vont a rebours. Et tout cela me font amours don jendure grief martire. Sy nay de vous aultre secours, force sera que me retire.

English translation Now I have plumbed the depths of my darkest days: My woes press upon me; naught my suffering allays. Love alone is to blame And threatens my poor wits to craze. Pray succour love's flame Or see me go my ways. Translation by Mick Swithinbank
