Original text and translations

French text Content désir qui cause ma douleur, heureux savoir qui mon travail renforce, O fort amour, qui m'a rendu sans force, donnez secours à ma peine et langueur.

English translation Sated desire that gives me but grief, Happiness that doth my sadness enforce, O pow’rful love that has drained me of force, From my languor and pain grant me relief. Translation by Thomas Daughton
