Sinner Against My Will

5750 1 1

Can one be made sinner

By acts of another?

Can pure heart be guilty

If guilty his brother?

Can love which is pure

And from treachery free

Be changed into sin

While no change is in me?

 

With no alteration

In love or desire,

But staying true only

To true love's first fire,

I yet have been turned

To adulterer base

Since he that I love

Wed a new, fairer face.
