Though I be banisshed out of her sight,
And by her mouth dampned that I shal deye,
†To my behest yet I wil ever obeye.
For ever, sithë that the world began,
Who-so list lokë, and in storie rede,

He shal ay finde that the trewe man
Was put abakke, wher-as the falshede
Y-furthered was; for Love taketh non hede
To slee the trewe, and hath of hem no charge,
