[XXI. Witnesse ye heauens]
Witnesse yee heau'ns, I vow to loue the
fairest
Witnesse yee heau'ns, I vow to loue the
fairest, to loue but how? for vertue
not for lust, for vertue why? because she is the rarest. Come
life, come death, in her I only trust, hap death, hap life, I force not
which betide, I force not which betide me, by her I liue from
death I cannot hide me, hap death, hap life, I force not which betide,
I force not which betide me, by her I liue, from death I cannot
hide me.
