XLVIII

De lacrimis et pro lacrimis mea coepit origo:
Ex oculis fluxi, sed nunc ex arbore nascor;
Laetus honor frondi, tristis sed imago doloris.

Peck:

From tears, for tears I first was made to grow,
Once from the eyes, but now from trees I flow;
Glad honour to my leaf, but 'tis the form of woe!

Ohl:

From tears and for tears was the source of my beginning. From human eyes I flowed, but now I start from a tree, the happy adornment of my leaf, but the sad image of sorrow.
