Read the passage below and answer the question

Tell me not (sweet) I am unkinde,

That from theNunnerie

of thy chaste breast and quiet minde,

To warre and Armes I flie.

True, a new Mistresse now I chase,

The first Foe in the field;

And with a stronger faith imbrace,

A Sword, a Horse, a Shield.

Yet thisInconstancy is such,

As you too shall adore;

I could not love thee (Deare) so much,

Lov'd I not Honour more.

The reference to ''......the Nunnerie of thy chaste breast'' suggests that the woman is being
