In loving thee thou know'st I am forsworn,But thou art twice forsworn to me love swearing,In act thy bed-vow broke and new faith torn,In vowing new hate after new love bearing:

But why of two oaths' breach do I accuse thee,When I break twenty? I am perjured most,For all my vows are oaths but to misuse thee:

And all my honest faith in thee is lost.

For I have sworn deep oaths of thy deep kindness:

Oaths of thy love, thy truth, thy constancy,And to enlighten thee gave eyes to blindness,Or made them swear against the thing they see.

For I have sworn thee fair: more perjured I,To swear against the truth so foul a be.
