　　Which borrow'd from this holy fire of Love 既借得这神圣的爱情之火，

　　A dateless lively heat, still to endure, 这股热量便不舍昼夜燃烧激荡，

　　And grew a seething bath, which yet men prove Against strange maladies a sovereign cure. 它使流泉如沸水澎湃，有人证明这温泉是包治百病的绝妙药方。

　　But at my mistress' eye Love's brand new-fired, 现在爱神又借我情人之眼点燃情火，

　　The boy for trial needs would touch my breast; 为试功效，他用火炬触我的胸膛，

　　I, sick withal, the help of bath desired, 我于是病了，便向温泉求救，

　　And thither hied, a sad distemper'd guest, 我赶到那儿，满心里狂躁又凄凉。

　　But found no cure: the bath for my help lies Where Cupid got new fire--my mistress' eyes. 可温泉失效；因为它本来自我情人的双眼，就连爱神的火炬，也不得不由它复燃。
