As an unperfect actor on the stage,
Who with his feare is put besides his part, Or some fierce thing repleat with too much rage, Whose strengths abundance, weakens his owne heart; So I for feare of trust, forget to say, The perfect ceremony of loves right, And in mine owne loves strength seeme to decay, Ore-charg'd with burthen of mine owne loves might, O let my books be then the eloquence, And domb presagers of my speaking brest, Who pleade for love, and looke for recompence, More then that tongue that more hath more exprest. O learne to read what silent love hath writ, To heare with eyes belongs to loves fine wit.
