Sorrowful Image

Sorrowful image of my Phillis,

why do you sit so desolate beside me?

What more do you wish for? Streams of tears

have I poured on your ashes.

Do you fear that, forgetful of sacred vows,

I could turn to another lit.: that I might burn by another flame?

Shade of Phillis, rest peacefully;

the old flame of love cannot be extingushed.
