這首詩用鉛筆寫成,出自瑪格麗特·道格拉斯的手跡,但作者身份不明。說話者斷言,儘管在愛她所愛的人的過程中遇到了逆境,但沒有什麼能改變她對他的感情。由於這首詩強調真誠,它可能是在前一首詩“Sum summ say I love sum say I moke” (58v) 的基礎上創作的,而前一首詩談論的是欺騙。道格拉斯在 65r 上還寫了一個簡短版本的這首詩,即"my hart ys set nat to remowe"。
大多數標準見證人索引只指出了"my hart ys set nat to remowe" (65r) 的三節版本。在"wan I be thyng my wontyd was" (59r) 中發現的額外一節,在道格拉斯和托馬斯·霍華德的困境下尤其具有顛覆性。值得注意的是,“Do what they wyll and do ther warst” 似乎是對將戀人分開的力量的蔑視的呼喊。
