Never wedding, ever wooing,
Still a lovelorn heart pursuing,
Read you not the wrong you're doing
In my cheek's pale hue?
All my life with sorrow strewing;
Wed or cease to woo.
Men of England! who inherit
Rights that cost your sires their blood.

Than never be courted at all.
Better be courted and jilted
Than never be courted at all.
