LXIX.MILITAT OMNIS AMANS.
How can I be cald constant in my love
sen in inconstancyie my dedes consists?
I mount and fall; I baithe stand stil and move;
I feare, I hope; I leave aff yet insists;
my lauliness all proude disdayne resists;
baithe glad and sadd, I frese and I do burne;
and in despyte in patience more persists;
content, displeasd, attones I smyle and murne;
as I wald go, als sone I wald returne;
my plaints sueit musik ar, my confort caire;
I bakward stey with bitt, and fordword spurne;
thus of inconstant constant am I maire:
And since thow, love, suche contrairs dois agrie,
Ioyne me to her and her agane to me.
Affluit incautis insidisiosus amor.
W. Fouler.
