Robert Henryson, a late fifteenth-century Scots poet, wrote The Testament of Cresseid as a sequel to Chaucer's Troilus and Criseyde. In Henryson's poem Cressida is punished for her unfaithfulness to Troilus. Diomede discards her, the gods visit leprosy upon her, and she becomes a disfigured beggar.
From Diomed and Cressida, 1789
