  1. What much is wish'd for, is with ease believ'd.
  2. But when you own what a lewd wretch thou art,
  3. My blood grows cold and freezes at my heart,
  4. Then do I curse thee, and thy crimes reprove,
  5. But curse in vain, for still I find I love;
  6. "Since she is false," oft to myself I cry,
  7. "Would I were dead,"-yet 'tis with thee I'd die
