First Line: I see my plaint with open ears
Last Line: Is that I see myself alive.
Alternate Author Name(s): Wyat, Thomas
Subject(s): Eyes; Life; Tears
I see my plaint with open ears
Is heard, alas, and laughing eyes.
I see that scorn beholds my tears
And all the harm hap can devise.
I see my life away so wears
That I myself myself despise.
And most of all wherewith I strive
Is that I see myself alive.
