- 1 Canst thou O cruel, say I love thee not,
- 2 When I against my self with thee partake?
- 3 Do I not think on thee when I forgot
- 4 Am of my self, all-tyrant, for thy sake?
- 5 Who hateth thee that I do call my friend,
- 6 On whom frown’st thou that I do fawn upon,
- 7 Nay if thou lour’st on me do I not spend
- 8 Revenge upon my self with present moan?
- 9 What merit do I in my self respect,
- 10 That is so proud thy service to despise,
- 11 When all my best doth worship thy defect,
- 12 Commanded by the motion of thine eyes?
- 13 But love hate on for now I know thy mind,
- 14 Those that can see thou lov’st, and I am blind.
