| SONET 66 (TIRED WITH ALL THESE, FOR RESTFUL DEATH I CRY) | 66 |
| | |
| Tired with all these, for restful death I cry, | TYr'd with all theſe for reſtfull death I cry, |
| As, to behold desert a beggar born, | As to behold deſert a begger borne, |
| And needy nothing trimm'd in jollity, | And needie Nothing trimd in iollitie, |
| And purest faith unhappily forsworn, | And pureſt faith vnhappily forſworne, |
| And guilded honour shamefully misplaced, | And gilded honor ſhamefully miplaſt, |
| And maiden virtue rudely strumpeted, | And maiden vertue rudely ſtrumpeted, |
| And right perfection wrongfully disgraced, | And right perfection wrongfully diſgrac'd, |
| And strength by limping sway disabled, | And ſtrength by limping ſway diſabled, |
| And art made tongue-tied by authority, | And arte made tung-tide by authoritie, |
| And folly doctor-like controlling skill, | And Folly (Doctor-like) controuling skill, |
| And simple truth miscall'd simplicity, | And ſimple-Truth miſcalde Simplicitie, |
| And captive good attending captain ill: | And captiue-good attending Captaine ill. |
| Tired with all these, from these would I be gone, | Tyr'd with all theſe,from theſe would I be gone; |
| Save that, to die, I leave my love alone. | Saue that to dye, I leaue my loue alone. |
