586TAke all my loues, my loue, yea take them all,

587What hast thou then more then thou hadst before?

588No loue, my loue, that thou maist true loue call,

589All mine was thine, before thou hadst this more:

590Then if for my loue, thou my loue receiuest,

591I cannot blame thee, for my loue thou vsest,

592But yet be blam'd, if thou this selfe deceauest

593B y wilfull taste of what thy selfe refusest.

594I doe forgiue thy robb'rie gentle theefe

595Although thou steale thee all my pouerty:

596And yet loue knowes it is a greater griefe

597To beare loues wrong, then hates knowne iniury.

598 Lasciuious grace, in whom all il wel showes,

599Kill me with spights yet we must not be foes.

601THose pretty wrongs that liberty commits,

602When I am some-time absent from thy heart,

603Thy beautie, and thy yeares full well befits,

604For still temptation followes where thou art.

605Gentle thou art, and therefore to be wonne,

606Beautious thou art, therefore to be assailed.

607And when a woman woes, what womans sonne,

608Will sourely leaue her till he haue preuailed.

609Aye me, but yet thou mighst my seate forbeare,

610And chide thy beauty, and thy straying youth,

611Who lead thee in their ryot euen there

612Where thou art forst to breake a two-fold truth:

613 Hers by thy beauty tempting her to thee,

614Thine by thy beautie beeing false to me.

616THat thou hast her it is not all my griefe,

617And yet it may be said I lou'd her deerely,

618That she hath thee is of my wayling cheefe,

619A losse in loue that touches me more neerely.

620Louing offendors thus I will excuse yee,

621Thou doost loue her, because thou knowst I loue her,

622And for my sake euen so doth she abuse me,

623Suffring my friend for my sake to approoue her,

624If I loose thee, my losse is my loues gaine,

625And loosing her, my friend hath found that losse,

626Both finde each other, and I loose both twaine,

627And both for my sake lay on me this crosse,

628 But here's the ioy, my friend and I are one,

629Sweete flattery, then she loues but me alone.
