First Line: Love-sick I am, and must endure
Last Line: And that is death, the end of woe.
Subject(s): Love - Complaints


Love-sick I am, and must endure
A desp'rate grief, that finds no cure.
Ah me! I try; and trying, prove,
No Herbs have power to cure Love.
Only one Soveraign salve, I know,
And that is Death, the end of Woe.
