To the great sender turns a [sour] offence,

Crying 'That's good [that's gone.'] [Our] rash [faults]

Make [trivial] price of serious things we have,

Not knowing them until we know their grave:

Oft our displeasures, to ourselves unjust,

Destroy our friends and after weep their dust:

[Our] [own] love waking cries to see what's done,

While [shameful hate] [sleeps] out the afternoon.

Be this sweet Helen's knell, and now [forget her].

Send forth your amorous token for fair Maudlin:
