Thus hoping that Adonis is alive,
Her rash suspect she doth extenuate;
And that his beauty may the better thrive,
With Death she humbly doth insinuate;
Tells him of trophies, statues, tombs, and stories
His victories, his triumphs and his glories.
情男不死期望高，
神女火熄虑渐消；
美男更丽俊更昭，
取媚死神女用娇；
碑塔坟茔神多事，
荣光胜利彰神志。
