FOR CONFIRMING OF ANE FAITHFULL PROMEIS.
SONNET.
The suelling sie sall first rewert in fyre,And mollifeit salbie ilk dourest stone,
The erth abowe the heawenis sall Impyre,
Of sone And mone the lycht sall als be gone,
Ȝea, godis vorks decay sall euerie one,
Befoir that I the sacred oth repent,
Maist firmlie meid to ȝow my luif alone
Vith fixit faith, And euir salbie bent
As plesith ȝow to stand alway content.
O onlie reuler of my trustie hart,
So deip ȝe beine vithin the sam Imprent,
That non bot ȝow may occupie that part.
Och vold to god I mycht be pruif explaine
My Inwart treuth quhilk constant sall remaine.
