Sir Thomas Wyatt...
Alas! madam, for stealing of a kiss,
   Have I so much your mind then offended?
Have I then done so grievously amiss,
   That by no means it may be amended?
Then revenge you, and the next way is this:
   Another kiss shall have my life ended.
For to my mouth the first my heart did suck,
The next shall clean out of my breast it pluck.
