Miserable comforters are ye all.
The miserable have no other medicine,
But only hope.
O, I have passed a miserable night,
So full of ugly sights, of ghastly dreams,
That, as I am a Christian faithful man,
I would not spend another such a night,
Though 't were to buy a world of happy days.
Have mercy upon us miserable sinners.
To be weak is miserable,
Doing or suffering.
