No longer let your heart be so oppressed;

This heart that once was mine, to thee I deliver,

Take it in exchange for thine, keep it for ever.

Witness ye pow'rs above that first created us,

Nothing but death, my love, shall separate us,

There is nothing now to keep us asunder,

Then let's to church and be joined together.

He play'd the tyrant's part, and soon did leave her,

Which makes me for to cry, fatal man I find him,

Since he is gone, farewel, I ne'er will mind him.
