Madrigal by John Dowland transposed for men's voices and sung by the dwsChorale

Can she excuse my wrongs with Virtue's cloak?

Shall I call her good when she proves unkind?

Are those clear fires which vanish into smoke?

Must I praise the leaves where no fruit I find?

No no: where shadows do for bodies stand

Thou may'st be abus'd if thy sight be dim

Cold love is like to words written on sand

Or to bubbles which on the water swim

Wilt thou be thus abused still

Seeing that she will right thee never?

If thou canst not o'ercome her will

The love will be thus fruitless ever

Was I so base, that I might not aspire

Unto those high joys which she holds from me?

As they are high , so high is my desire:

If she this deny, what can granted be?

If she will yeld to that which reason is

It is Reason's will that Love should be just

Dear make me happy still be granting this

Or cut off delays if that die I must

Better a thousand times to die

Than for to live thus still tormented:

Dear, but remember it was I

Who for thy sake did die contended
