SAY that thou didst
forsake me for some fault |
|
And I will comment upon that offence: |
|
Speak of my lameness, and I straight will
halt, |
|
Against thy reasons making no defence. |
|
Thou canst not love, disgrace me half so
ill, |
5 |
To set a form upon desired change, |
|
As I ll myself disgrace; knowing thy
will, |
|
I will acquaintance strangle, and look strange; |
|
Be absent from thy walks; and in my tongue |
|
Thy sweet beloved name no more shall dwell, |
10 |
Lest I, too much profane, should do it wrong, |
|
And haply of our old acquaintance tell. |
|
For thee, against myself I ll
vow debate, |
|
For I must neer love him
whom thou dost hate. |
