Tell me not, sweet, I am unkind,
:Tell me not, sweet, I am unkind,
That from the nunnery
:That from the nunnery
Of thy chaste breast and quiet mind
:Of thy chaste breast and quiet mind
To war and arms I fly.
:To war and arms I fly.

:True, a new mistress now I chase,
True, a new mistress now I chase,
:The first foe in the field;
The first foe in the field;
:And with a stronger faith embrace
And with a stronger faith embrace
:A sword, a horse, a shield.
A sword, a horse, a shield.

:Yet this inconstancy is such

:As you too shall adore;
As you too shall adore;
:I could not love thee, dear, so much,
I could not love thee, dear, so much,
:Lov'd I not honour more.
Lov'd I not honour more.}}

Tell me not, sweet, I am unkind,
That from the nunnery
Of thy chaste breast and quiet mind
To war and arms I fly.

True, a new mistress now I chase,
The first foe in the field;
And with a stronger faith embrace
A sword, a horse, a shield.

Yet this inconstancy is such
As you too shall adore;
I could not love thee, dear, so much,
Lov'd I not honour more.
