Stealing her soul with many vows of faith; and ne'er a true one

Stealing her soul with many vows of faith; and ne'er a true one

In the world of William Shakespeare's plays, the theme of love and betrayal is a common thread that runs through many of his works. One of the most famous lines that captures this theme is from Sonnet 138, where the speaker laments, "Stealing her soul with many vows of faith; and ne'er a true one." This line encapsulates the idea of someone deceiving their lover with false promises and oaths of love, ultimately betraying their trust and breaking their heart.
