[Since iust disdaine began to rise]
Since iust disdaine began to rise,
and cry reuenge for spitefull wrong,
What erst I prays'd, I now dispise,
& thinke my loue was all too long,
I tread in durt that scornefull pride,
which in thy lookes I haue discry'd,
Thy beauty is a painted skin,
for fooles to see their faces in.
and cry reuenge for spitefull wrong,
What erst I prays'd, I now dispise,
& thinke my loue was all too long,
I tread in durt that scornefull pride,
which in thy lookes I haue discry'd,
Thy beauty is a painted skin,
for fooles to see their faces in.

Thine eyes that some as starres esteeme,
From whence themselues they say take light:
Like to the foolish fire I deeme,
That leades men to their death by night.
Thy words and oathes are light as winde,
And yet farre lighter is thy minde:
Thy friendship is a broken reede,
That failes thy friend in greatest neede.
From whence themselues they say take light:
Like to the foolish fire I deeme,
That leades men to their death by night.
Thy words and oathes are light as winde,
And yet farre lighter is thy minde:
Thy friendship is a broken reede,
That failes thy friend in greatest neede.
