Love turn'd to Hatred.

I Will not love one minute more I swear,
No not a minute; not a sigh or tear
Thou getst from me, or one kind look agen,
Though thou shouldst court me to't and wouldst begin.
I will not think of thee but as men do
Of debts and sins, and then I'le curse thee too:
For thy sake woman shall be now to me
Less welcom, then at midnight ghosts shall be:
Ile hate so perfectly, that it shall be
Treason to love that man that loves a she;
Nay I will hate the very good, I swear,
That's in thy sex, because it doth lie there;
Their very vertue, grace, discourse, and wit,
And all for thee; what, wilt thou love me yet?
