#I saw my Lady weepe
#Flow my tears
#Sorrow Stay
#Die not before the day
#Mourn, day is with darkness fled
#Time's eldest son, Old Age
#Then sit thee down
#When others sing Venite
#Praise blindness eyes
#O sweet woods
#If floods of tears
#Fine knacks for ladies
#Now cease my wand'ring eyes
#Come ye heavy states of night
#White as lilies was her face
#Woeful heart
#A Shepherd in a shade
#Faction that ever dwells
#Shall I sue
#Toss not my soul
#Clear or cloudy
#Humour say what mak'st thou here (a Dialogue)
