2207O Me ! what eyes hath loue put in my head,

2208Which haue no correspondence with true sight,

2209Or if they haue, where is my iudgment fled,

2210That censures falsely what they see aright ?

2211If that be faire whereon my false eyes dote,

2212What meanes the world to say it is not so ?

2213If it be not, then loue doth well denote,

2214Loues eye is not so true as all mens:no,

2215How can it ? O how can loues eye be true,

2216That is so vext with watching and with teares?

2217No maruaile then though I mistake my view,

2218The sunne it selfe sees not, till heauen cleeres.

2219 O cunning loue, with teares thou keepst me blinde,

2220Least eyes well seeing thy foule faults should finde.

2222CAnst thou O cruell, say I loue thee not,

2223When I against my selfe with thee pertake :

2224Doe I not thinke on thee when I forgot

2225Am of my selfe, all tirant for thy sake?

2226Who hateth thee that I doe call my friend,

2227On whom froun'st thou that I doe faune vpon,

2228Nay if thou lowrst on me doe I not spend

2229Reuenge vpon my selfe with present mone?

2230What merrit do I in my selfe respect,

2231That is so proude thy seruice to dispise,

2232When all my best doth worship thy defect,

2233Commanded by the motion of thine eyes.

2234 But loue hate on for now I know thy minde,

2235Those that can see thou lou'st, and I am blind.

2237OH from what powre hast thou this powrefull might,

2238With insufficiency my heart to sway,

2239To make me giue the lie to my true sight,

2240And swere that brightnesse doth not grace the day?

2241Whence hast thou this becomming of things il,

2242That in the very refuse of thy deeds;

2243There is such strength and warrantise of skill,

2244That in my minde thy worst all best exceeds?

2245Who taught thee how to make me loue thee more,

2246The more I heare and see iust cause of hate,

2247Oh though I loue what others doe abhor,

2248With others thou shouldst not abhor my state.

2249 If thy vnworthinesse raisd loue in me,

2250More worthy I to be belou'd of thee.
