Thomas Wyatt - "How oft have I, my dear and cruel foe" lyrics

How oft have I, my dear and cruel foe, With those your eyes for to get peace and truce Proffered you mine heart! But you do not use Among so high things to cast your mind so low. If any other look for it, as ye trow, Their vain weak hope doth greatly them abuse. And thus I disdain that that ye refuse: It was once mine, it can no more be so. If I then it chase, nor it in you can find In this exile no manner of comfort, Nor live alone, nor, where he is called, resort, He may wander from his natural kind. So shall it be great hurt unto us twain And yours the loss and mine the deadly pain.
