SONG: 41 by THOMAS WYATT

Poet Analysis

First Line: MISTRUSTFUL MINDS BE MOVED
Last Line: THEREOF GOD SEND THEM PART.
Subject(s): GOD; TRUTH;

Mistrustful minds be moved
To have me in suspect:
The truth it shall be proved,
Which time shall once detect.

Though falsehood go about
Of crime me to accuse,
At length I do not doubt
But truth shall me excuse.

Such sauce as they have served
To me without desart,
Even as they have deserved,
Thereof God send them part.
