|
I look upon myself and curse my fate |
|
Shall I compare you to a winter's day? |
|
Pull down your vanity, |
|
I say pull down |
|
A world of made is not a world of born |
|
I all alone beweep my outcast state and my eternal spring is shall not fade |
|
Some safer world in depths of wood embrace |
|
The stars move still with sound of glace |
|
And all the air a solemn stilness holds |
|
My ear is much enarmoured of your silent notes |
|
What angel wakes me from my flowered bed? |
|
Oh, you have killed my sleeping fairy-land |
|
I pray you gentle mortal, sing again |
|
I'm wandering till truth makes all things plain |
|
By moonshine did these lovers think no scorn to stay but here awhile most radiantly |
|
How glorious once above thy sphere and all the air |
|
Heaven's matchless king does glance methought he is there |
