For I lov'd ne'er a love but one, who’s drowned in sea.

He was a comaly proper youth, I lov’d him for my part, But death has taken him from me, which sore afflicts my heart. And since that he’s departed, I’ll mourn and weep always, That e’er he went to Holland, that was my earthly joys.

Unto the grave that he has gens, who was my comely dear, May heav’n receive my soul to vest, I’ll still lament in brinish tears, until the day I die, Since the Lowlands of Holland bath twin‘d my love and me.
