I am so afraid that you feel remorse

For an end that indeed you could not prevent;

And I am not there to put gentle force

On what you should and should not repent.

I am so afraid that you grieve too much,

With a sorrow that nothing will stop or stay:

O Harry, don't let your sorrow be such;

O darling, you shall be happy some day!

They want to have you; they hunt you to death:

They cannot believe that you meant the deed!
