VI

[But sethens you it asaye to kyll]

But sethens you it asaye to kyll
By crueltie and dowblenes,
That that was yowers, you seke to spill.
Against all right and gentilnes;
And sethens you will, euen so I will.
And then, helas, when no redresse
Can be, to late ye shall repent,
And say your self with woordes expresse:
Helas, an hert of true intent
Slain haue I by vnfaithfulnes!
