Sonnet VI.
[Mirror of beautie, Natures fairest chyld]
Mirror of beautie, Natures fairest chyld,Empresse of loue, my harts high-prized Iewell,
Learne of the Doue, to loue and to be milde,
be not to him that honors thee so cruell,
But as the Aspe, deafe, angry, nothing meeke,
thou wilt not listen to my dolefull plaint,
Nor once wilt looke on my discolored cheeke,
which wanting blood, causeth me oft to faint;
Then silent will I be, if that will please thee,
yet so, as in my stead, each Plaine, each Hill,
Shall eccho forth my griefe, and thereby ease mee,
for I my selfe of speaking haue my fill;
If Plaines, and Hills, be silent in my paine,
My death shall speake, and tell what I sustaine.
