My favour fallen from my lover’s hand
Gods have ensured this is where it would land
Before my feet on their treacherous path
To th’arms of a Greek for fear of his wrath
I feel that in your eyes I have not stayed true
Perhaps my actions make no sense to you
Alas my own lips said the words, and cursed
Myself to be known, of all women, worst
I stand, my actions despised through all time
With any reason trapped inside my mind
I’m pushed by powers you don’t understand
A good show is all that the gods demand
Gods have ensured this is where it would land
Before my feet on their treacherous path
To th’arms of a Greek for fear of his wrath
I feel that in your eyes I have not stayed true
Perhaps my actions make no sense to you
Alas my own lips said the words, and cursed
Myself to be known, of all women, worst
I stand, my actions despised through all time
With any reason trapped inside my mind
I’m pushed by powers you don’t understand
A good show is all that the gods demand
