[00:12.54] Look how the pale queen of the silent night
[00:15.56] Doth cause the ocean to attend upon her,
[00:19.24] And he, as long as she is in his sight,
[00:21.65] With her full tide is ready her to honor.
[00:25.94] But when the silver waggon of the moon
[00:27.95] Is mounted up so high he cannot follow,
[00:31.19] The sea calls home his crystal waves to moan,
[00:35.33] And with low ebb doth manifest his sorrow.
[00:39.35] So you that are the sovereign of my heart
[00:42.18] Have all my joys attending on your will;
[00:45.51] My joys low-ebbing when you do depart,
[00:49.06] When you return their tide my heart doth fill.
[00:54.05] So as you come and as you do depart,
[00:56.83] Joys ebb and flow within my tender heart.
[01:01.32]
