Rhyme Scheme: ABABCDCEFCFCGGIn loving thee thou know'st I am forsworn | A |
But thou art twice forsworn to me love swearing | B |
In act thy bed vow broke and new faith torn | A |
In vowing new hate after new love bearing | B |
But why of two oaths' breach do I accuse thee | C |
When I break twenty I am perjured most | D |
For all my vows are oaths but to misuse thee | C |
And all my honest faith in thee is lost | E |
For I have sworn deep oaths of thy deep kindness | F |
Oaths of thy love thy truth thy constancy | C |
And to enlighten thee gave eyes to blindness | F |
Or made them swear against the thing they see | C |
For I have sworn thee fair More perjured eye | G |
To swear against the truth so foul a lie | G |
