Go crystal tears, like to the morning showers,
And sweetly weep into thy lady`s breast.
And as the dews revive the drooping flow`rs.

Which sleeps too sound whilst I from her depart.

Haste, restless sighs, and let your burning breath

Whose frozen rigour, like forgetful Death,
Feels never any touch of my desert,
Yet sighs and tears to her I sacrifice
Both from a spotless heart and patient eyes.
