CLXXIV

[Wythe seruyng styll]

Wythe seruyng styll
This haue I wonne,
Ffor my good wyll
To be vndonne.
And ffor redres
Of all my payne
Disdaynffulnes
I haue agayne.
186

And ffor Reward
Of all my smart
Lo thus unhard
I must departe.
Wherefore all ye
That after shall
By fortune be,
As I am, thrall,
Exempell take
What I have wonne,
Thus for her sake
To be vndone.
