A Revocation

 WHAT should I say? 
 --Since Faith is dead, 
And Truth away 
 From you is fled? 
 Should I be led 
 With doubleness? 
 Nay! nay! mistress.
 

I promised you, 
 And you promised me, 
To be as true 
 As I would be.
 
 But since I see 
 Your double heart, 
 Farewell my part! 

Thought for to take 
 'Tis not my mind; 
But to forsake 
 One so unkind; 
 And as I find 
 So will I trust.
 
 Farewell, unjust! 

Can ye say nay 
 But that you said 
That I alway 
 Should be obeyed? 
 And--thus betrayed 
 Or that I wist! 
 Farewell, unkist!
