LXVII.
Quhat more can I performe or thow exspectthen consecrat to the my lyfe and harte,
and that sueit fredome which men maist affect
into a slavishe thraldome to convert?
quhat more can I, faire dame, to the imparte
then houers, then oulks, then monthes and yeres to spend,
devysing how thow may resist deaths darte
be these my verse whiche for thy prayse I pend?
I fraymd my witts thy vertewe to comend,
I sought by gifts and service the to gayne,
I sought by slights and treuthe thy yres to end,
I sought thy love be my eternal payne;
yet to thy lasting glorie and my shame,
I gett no guerdon of the, cruell dame.
