1982BEshrew that heart that makes my heart to groane

1983For that deepe wound it giues my friend and me;

1984I'st not ynough to torture me alone,

1985But slaue to slauery my sweet'st friend must be.

1986Me from my selfe thy cruell eye hath taken,

1987And my next selfe thou harder hast ingrossed,

1988Of him, my selfe, and thee I am forsaken,

1989A torment thrice three-fold thus to be crossed :

1990Prison my heart in thy steele bosomes warde,

1991But then my friends heart let my poore heart bale,

1992Who ere keepes me, let my heart be his garde,

1993Thou canst not then vse rigor in my Iaile.

1994 And yet thou wilt, for I being pent in thee,

1995Perforce am thine and all that is in me.

1997SO now I haue confest that he is thine,

1998And I my selfe am morgag'd to thy will,

1999My selfe Ile forfeit, so that other mine,

2000Thou wilt restore to be my comfort still:

2001But thou wilt not, nor he will not be free,

2002For thou art couetous, and he is kinde,

2003He learnd but suretie-like to write for me,

2004Vnder that bond that him as fast doth binde.

2005The statute of thy beauty thou wilt take,

2006Thou vsurer that put'st forth all to vse,

2007And sue a friend, came debter for my sake,

2008So him I loose through my vnkinde abuse.

2009 Him haue I lost, thou hast both him and me,

2010He paies the whole, and yet am I not free.

2012WHo euer hath her wish, thou hast thy Will,

2013And Will too boote, and Will in ouer-plus,

2014More then enough am I that vexe thee still,

2015To thy sweete will making addition thus.

2016Wilt thou whose will is large and spatious,

2017Not once vouchsafe to hide my will in thine,

2018Shall will in others seeme right gracious,

2019And in my will no faire acceptance shine:

2020The sea all water, yet receiues raine still,

2021And in aboundance addeth to his store,

2022So thou beeing rich in Will adde to thy Will,

2023One will of mine to make thy large Will more.

2024 Let no vnkinde, no faire beseechers kill,

2025Thinke all but one, and me in that one Will.
