Since Faith is dead,
And Truth away
From you is fled?

More quotes by Thomas Wyatt

Therefore fear not to assay
To gather, ye that may,
The flower that this day
Is fresher than the next.

And I have leave to go, of her goodness;
And she also to use new-fangleness.

For as saith a proverb notable,
Each thing seeketh his semblable.

Whoso list to hunt? I know where is an hind!

I cannot * * * say that Pan
Passeth Apollo in music manyfold;
Praisé Sir Thopas for a noble tale,
And scorn the story that the Knighté told.
