Be wise as thou art cruell, do not presse
My toung-tide patience with too much disdaine: Least sorrow lend me words and words expresse, The manner of my pittie wanting paine. If I might teach thee witte better it weare, Though not to loue, yet loue to tell me so, As testie sick-men when their deaths be neere, No newes but health from their Phisitions know. For if I should dispaire I should grow madde, And in my madnesse might speake ill of thee, Now this ill wresting world is growne so bad, Madde slanderers by madde eares beleeued be. That I may not be so, nor thou be lyde, Beare thine eyes straight, though thy proud heart goe wide.
