Heres a version of Sir Thomas Wyatt's (1503 - 1542) great poem I've recorded this time without the amazing music of my brilliantly talented electronic composer pal Willpower....Wyatt had suffered many betrayals in his life (he had spent time imprisoned in the tower of London) and this poem is surely about good faith being betrayed....I perform this song in both my recordings (the other with Willpower can be heard at at http://groups.msn.com/acousticmusiciansandpoetssoundarchive/poetrysounds.msnw?action=get_message&mview=0&ID_Message=33&LastModified=4675387894693974499 ) in the style of gregorian chant a style of plainsong practised by the Benedictine monks since its introduction by the 11th century catholic pope Gregory.....heres the link to the page with the sound file..

With Serving Still


With serving still
This I have won,
For my goodwill
To be undone.

And for redress
Of all my pain,
Disdainfulness
I have again.

And for reward
Of all my smart,
Lo, thus unheard,
I must depart.

Wherefore all ye
That after shall
By fortune be,
As I am, thrall,

Example take
What I have won,
Thus for her sake
To be undone.
