My fereful loue from me ys fledd

whyche of long tyme hast ben my gyde

now faythefull trust ys in hys stedd

and byde me sett all fere asyde



O trewthe yt ys I not denye [5]

all louers may not lyue in case

yet sum by hap doth syt truly

so lyke may I yft that she please



Why so yt ys a gyffe ye wott

by nature one to loue another [10]

and bynd that love dothe fall by lott

then why not I as well as other



yt may so be the cawse ys why

she knowethe no part to my poore mynd

but yet as one [assuredly] [15]

I speke not lyng but as I fynd



yff nature wyll yt shall so be

no reason rulythe fantasy

yet in thyscase as semythe me

I take all thyng Indyfferently [20]



yet uncertaun I wyll reioyce

and thynke to haue tho yet thow hast

I [sent] my chawnce onto her choyce

with pacyence for power ys past



No no I knowe the lyke ys fayre [25]

withowt dysdayn or cruelltye

and so to end from all dyspayre

ontyll I fynd the contrarye
