- # SONNETS.
Is more then my ore-press defence can bide?
Let me excuse thee, ah my loue well knowes,
Her prettie lookes haue beene mine enemies,
And therefore from my face the turnes my foes,
That they else—where might dart their injuries:
Yet do not so, but since I am neere slaine,
Kill me out-right with lookes, and rid my paine.
## 140
Be wise as thou art cruell, do not presse
My toung-tide patience with too much disdaine:
Least sorrow lend me words and words express,
The manner of my pittie wanting paine,
If I might teach thee witte better it weare,
Though not to loue, yet loue to tell me so,
As testie sick-men when their deaths be neere,
No newes but health from their Phifitions know,
For if I should dispaire I should grow madde,
And in my madnefse might speake ill of thee,
Now this ill wrefting world is growne so bad,
Madde slanderers by madde eares belecued be.
That I may not be so, nor thou be lyde,
Bearc thine eyes straight, though thy proud heart goe.
## 141
In faith I doe not loue thee with mine eyes,
For they in thee a thousand errors note,
But ’tis my heart that loues what they dispise,
Who in dispight of view is pleased to dote,
Nor are mine eares with thy toungs tune delighted,
Nor tender feeling to base touches prone,
Nor taste, nor smell, desire to be invited
To any sensual feast with thee alone:
But my fiue wits, nor my fiue fences can
Difwade one foolish heart from feruing thee,
Who leaues vnewai’d the likenesse of a man,
Thy proud hearts slave and vassall wretch to be:
Onely my plague thus farre I count my gaine,
That she that makes me sinne, awards me paine.
I 2
Loue
