<poem>Mourn, mourn, Day is with darkness fled,
Mourn, mourn, Day is with darkness fled,
What heav'n then governs earth?
What heav'n then governs earth?
O none, but hell in heaven's stead,
O none, but hell in heaven's stead,
Line 35: Line 39:
Nor night, but that from hell.
Nor night, but that from hell.
Then all must as they may
Then all must as they may
in darkness learn to dwell.
In darkness learn to dwell.


But yet this change, must needs change our delight,
But yet this change, must needs change our delight,
That thus the sun should harbour with the night.</poem>
That thus the sun should harbour with the night.

Mourn, mourn, Day is with darkness fled,
What heav'n then governs earth?
O none, but hell in heaven's stead,
Chokes with his mists our mirth.

Mourn, mourn, look now for no more day
Nor night, but that from hell.
Then all must as they may
In darkness learn to dwell.

But yet this change, must needs change our delight,
That thus the sun should harbour with the night.
