What, still another woman false,
  Another honest man betrayed:
Then Heaven is made for only men,
  And Hell for women made.

Now, with that false deceitful sex,
  Henceforth I have for ever done;
Only one Judas lived a man,
  But every woman's one.

Send down, O Lord, ten thousand Christs,
  Each one as great as Christ Thy Son;
Not for all men, but just to make
  One woman true, just one.
