My hertly love is in your govenauns [MS. et.] And ever shal, whill that I lyven may. I pray to god, [that] I may see that day That we be knyt with thouthfull alyauns. Ye schal not fynd feynyng or vareauns, As in my part, that wyl I trewly say, My hertly love is in your gouernauns. . . . . . . . . . . . .

Ne were my trewe innocent hert How ye hold with her aliauns That sometyme with wordes of plesauns Desceyved you under covert.
Thynke, how the stroke of love cane [MS. come.] smert Without warnyng or deffiauns, Ne were my trewe innocent hert.
