about

From a sonnet purportedly written by Mary to Bothwell, outlining her passionate jealousy. With air from Loch Leven, where she was imprisoned and miscarried his twins.

lyrics

Quand vous l'aimiez, elle usait de froideur. Si vous souffriez pour l'amour. La tristesse de coeur, votre grande ardeur. Ce loyal coeur, tristesse heure.
Qui vient d'aimer de trop d'affection, son doigt montrait la tristesse de coeur. Quand vous l'aimiez.
Trans. When you made love, she lay with cold disdain. If you were suffering the heat of passion. Sadness of the heart, your fervent love. Your loyal heart, sadness hour, that comes from loving with too much feeling, her hand would make heart sadness, when you made love.
