   These proud foppish coxcombs was my fair one's scorn
   To guard her from such Nature lent her the thorn
   The graces themselves did my fair one adorn
   Pale Rose will you ne'er bloom again. .

   The dunce will delight to read Milton and Homer
   The sheep will forget for to browze
   The hill will be white with snow in the Summer
   Before I prove false to my Rose.
   Come sickness, come sorrow let what will betide
   I will always prove to my dear loving Bride.

   It is death and death only our love can divide
   My pale Rose will you ne'er bloom again.

   While the Bee sung around thus I construed its dilly
   Translators I know may be wrong
   Be that as it may the poor mourner I pity
   My heart beat the tune while it sung
   Each 10th of July that I live for to see
   Shall be kept in grave pomp and solemnity
   In silence I'll sigh when I see the lone Bee
   When Summer comes smiling again.
