LOVE-SICKNESS by ANONYMOUS

First Line: I WILL LIE DOWN WITHIN
Last Line: SHE KNOWETH MINE ILLNESS
Subject(s): LOVE - COMPLAINTS;
I will lie down within.
Behold, I am sick with wrongs.
Then my neighbors come in
To visit me.
This sister of mine cometh with them;
She will make a laughing-stock of the physicians;
She knoweth mine illness.
