I agree with Denys and Ron.

The presence of a repeat sign in the original print makes
it clear that the section must be repeated, notwithstanding
only one set of words. And it's such a powerful line that it's
repetition very much emphasises the meaning of the song. And
as an aside, why would the solo versions contain divisions on the
third strain if it was only played once? There's absolutely no
doubt in my mind that the repeat was intended by Dowland.
Best wishes,

Hi, everyone! I may be taking my life in my hands (in the sense of
inviting a deluge of emails), but what the heck. What are people's
opinions regarding a repeat in performance of the third section of
Dowland's "Flow My Tears"; yes, no, and why?
