1612I mu
st each day
say ore the very
same,
1613Counting no old thing old,
thou mine,
I thine,
1614Euen as when
fir
st I hallowed thy faire name.
1615So that eternall loue in loues fre
sh ca
se,
1616Waighes not the du
st and iniury of age,
1617Nor giues to nece
ssary wrinckles place,
1618But makes antiquitie for aye his page,
1619 Finding the
fir
st conceit of loue there bred,
1620Where time and outward forme would
shew it dead,
1622O Neuer
say that I was fal
se of heart,
1623Though ab
sence
seem'd my
flame to qualli
fie,
1624As ea
sie might I from my
selfe depart,
1625As from my
soule which in thy bre
st doth lye :
1626That is my home of loue,
if I haue rang'd,
1627Like him that trauels I returne againe,
1628Iu
st to the time,
not with the time exchang'd,
1629So that my
selfe bring water for my
staine,
1630Neuer beleeue though in my nature raign'd,
1631All frailties that be
siege all kindes of blood,
1632That it could
so prepo
sterou
slie be
stain'd,
1633To leaue for nothing all thy
summe of good :
1634 For nothing this wide Vniuer
se I call,
1635Saue thou my Ro
se,
in it thou art my all.
1637ALas 'tis true,
I haue gone here and there,
1638And made my
selfe a motley to the view,
1639Gor'd mine own thoughts,
sold cheap what is mo
st deare,
1640Made old o
ffences of a
ffe
ctions new.
1641Mo
st true it is,
that I haue lookt on truth
1642A
sconce and
strangely: But by all aboue,
1643The
se blenches gaue my heart an other youth,
1644And wor
se e
ssaies prou'd thee my be
st of loue,
1645Now all is done,
haue what
shall haue no end,
1646Mine appetite I neuer more will grin'de
1647On newer proofe,
to trie an older friend,
1648A God in loue,
to whom I am con
fin'd.
Then
