      O* that | you were | your self. | But love, | you are
           ,       ,           ,           ,            ,
      No long|er yours | than you | your self | here* live.
          ,           ,       ,           ,         ,
      Against | this com|ing end | you should | prepare
                   ,    ,          ,         ,       ,
      And your / sweet sem|blance to | some^oth|er give.

             ,      ,        ,       ,         ,
      Which hus|bandry | in hon|or might | uphold,
          ,           ,       ,         ,         ,
      Against | the storm|y gusts | of wint|er's day
           ,        ,          ,         ,       ,
      And bar|ren rage | of death's | etern|al cold?
          ,              ,       ,         ,          ,
      O none | but un/thrifts. Dear | my love | you know
       ,     2     ,        ,          T   T   T
      You had a | father,| let your | son say so.
