I

  Injurious love, why still to mar accord

  Between desires has been thy favourite feat?

  Why does it please thee so, perfidious lord,

  Two hearts should with a different measure beat?

  Thou wilt not let me take the certain ford,

  Dragging me where the stream is deep and fleet.

  Her I abandon who my love desires,

  While she who hates, respect and love inspires.
