First Line: Defiled is my name full sore
Last Line: Ye seek for that can not be found.
Alternate Author Name(s): Bullen, Anne
Subject(s): Farewell; Parting
Defiled is my name full sore
Through cruel spite and false report,
That I may say for evermore,
Farewell, my joy! adieu comfort!
For wrongfully ye judge of me
Unto my fame a mortal wound,
Say what ye list, it will not be,
Ye seek for that can not be found.
