Rowland Watkyns (1614?-1664), "Antipathy," in his Flamma Sine Fumo: or, Poems Without Fictions (London: Printed for William Leake, 1662), p. 45:

I Love him not; but shew no reason can
Wherefore, but this, I do not love the man.

This is obviously inspired by Martial 1.33:

Non amo te, Sabidi, nec possum dicere quare;
  Hoc tantum possum dicere, non amo te.
