English text
- Sleep wayward thoughts,and rest you with my love,
- let not my love be with my love diseas'd.
- Touch not proud hands, least you her anger move,
- but pine you with my longings displeas'd.
- Thus while she sleeps I sorrow for her sake,
- so sleeps my love, and yet my love doth wake.
- But on the fury of my restless fear,
- The hidden anguish of my flesh desires,
- The glories and the beauties that appear,
- Between her brows near Cupid closed fires
- Thus while she sleeps I sorrow for her sake,
- so sleeps my love, and yet my love doth wake.
- My love doth rage, and yet my love doth rest,
- Fear in my love, and yet my love secure,
- Peace in my love, and yet my love oppress'd,
- Impatient yet of perfect temperature,
- Sleep dainty love, while I sigh for thy sake,
- so sleeps my love, and yet my love doth wake.
