Every eye must weep alone
Till I Will be overthrown.
But I Will can be removed,
Not having sense enough
To guard against I Know,
But I Will can be removed.
Than all I’s can meet and grow,
I Am become I Love,
I Have Not I Am Loved,
Then all I’s can meet and grow.
Till I Will be overthrown
Every eye must weep alone.
