    A Tragedy
    Once a man alone
    Many dark days past
    Yet contempt by my standards
    So unjust is my fate

    For now love has found me
    Such an unmerciful beast she be
    Causing happiness in my life
    By the likes of which I have never seen

    I am in love indeed
    For I swear by the moon
    Which is inconsistent with its presence,
    That she is my soul mate

    Oh love why must ye be so cruel
    What have I done to thee
    That I deserve such a companion
    To love and be loved
