Love not me for comely grace,

For my pleasing eye or face;

Nor for any outward part,

No, nor for my constant heart:

For those may fail or turn to ill,

so thou and i shall sever:

Keep thereforea true

woman's eye,

And love me still, but know

not why;

So hast thou the same reason

still

To doat upon me ever
