Lyrics:

An thou were my ain Thing,
I would love thee, I would love thee,
An thou were my ain Thing,
So dearly would I love thee.
I would take thee in my Arms,
I'd secure thee from all Harms,
For above mortals thou hast charms,
So dearly I do love thee.
Of Race divine thou needs must be,
Since nothing earthly equals thee,
By Heavn's I beg you'll favour me,
For dearly I do love thee.
My Passion, constant as the Sun,
Flames stronger still, will ne'er have done
Till fates my thread of Life have spun,
Which breathing out, I'll love thee.
