O I am miserably lost; thus fallen
Into my uncles hands, from all my hopes: 
No matter now, where thou be false or no,
Goswin, whether thou love an other better;
Or me alone; or where thou keep thy vow,
And word, or that thou come, or stay:  for I
To thee from henceforth, must be ever absent,
And thou to me:  no more shall we come neere,
