| So shall I live, supposing thou art true, | 1 |
|
|
| Like a deceived husband; so love's face |
|
|
| May still seem love to me, though alter'd new; |
|
|
| Thy looks with me, thy heart in other place: |
|
|
| For there can live no hatred in thine eye, | 5 |
|
|
| Therefore in that I cannot know thy change. |
|
|
| In many's looks, the false heart's history |
|
|
| Is writ in moods, and frowns, and wrinkles strange. |
|
|
| But heaven in thy creation did decree |
|
|
| That in thy face sweet love should ever dwell; | 10 |
|
|
| Whate'er thy thoughts, or thy heart's workings be, |
|
|
| Thy looks should nothing thence, but sweetness tell. |
|
|
How like Eve's apple doth thy beauty grow, |
|
|
If thy sweet virtue answer not thy show! |
