Loves martyr | ||
19. O let me heare, from thee my deare.
O tongue thou hast blasphem'd thy holy Goddesse,Let me do penance for offending thee,
Me do thou blame for my forgetfulnesse:
Heare my submission, thou wilt succor me:
From thy harts closet commeth gentlenesse,
Thee hath the world admir'd for clemency,
My hart is sorrie, and Ile bite my tongue,
Deare that to thee, to thee I offred wrong.
Loves martyr | ||
