United Kingdom

In darkness let me dwell, the ground shall sorrow be,
The roof despair to bar all cheerful light from me,
The walls of marble black that moistened still shall weep,
My music hellish jarring sounds to banish friendly sleep:
Thus wedded to my woes, and bedded to my tomb
O, let me living die, till death do come
In darkness let me dwell.

In darknesse let mee dwell, The ground shall sorrow be,
The roof Dispaire to barre all cheerfull light from mee,
The wals of marble blacke that moistned still shall weepe,
My musicke hellish iarring sounds to banish friendly sleepe.
Thus wedded to my woes, And bedded to my Tombe,
O Let me liuing die, Till death doe come,
In darknesse let mee dwell.[1]
