Bear a fair presence, though your heart be tainted;
Teach sin the carriage of a holy saint;
15 Be secret-false: what need she be acquainted?
What simple thief brags of his own [attaint]?
’Tis double wrong, to truant with your bed,
And let her read it in thy looks at board:
Shame hath a bastard fame, well managed;
20 Ill deeds [are] doubled with an evil word.
Alas, poor women! make us [but] believe,
Being compact of credit, that you love us;
