The feelings expressed in the lyric are altogether real and genuine and the reader feels as being swept off his feet by the true, real, and forceful emotions and feelings of the poet.
Most of the lines are end-stopped and this thing gives a strangely strong feeling to the lyric. The poem has even been composed in such a way as to be sung beautifully like any lyric with the lute. Each line consists of two feet, each. So much about the beautiful and nice form of the poem. So far as the thought content of the poem is concerned, the poet feels pathetic about his beloved having become double-hearted.
He feels small as she has left him all alone even after swearing sincerely about her love for him. The poet feels rather shocked to find out the total change in the behavior of the beloved. He has had a keen observation of the behavior of the beloved and has reached the conclusion that, after all, she has betrayed him and has falsified her vow or promise. The poet, therefore, feels sad and broken-hearted. Remember Me. Nay, nay, mistress!
