by Bartholomew Yonge (1560 - 1612)

End now my life
Language: English 
End now my life; with daily pains afflicted,
Since that for all that I have wept and grieved,
My tears are not requited,
And trusty faith not any whit believed.
I am in such a hapless state of sorrow
That I could be content, and so relieve me,
Unjust rewards and scorns of her to borrow,
Only that she would credit and believe me.
