SONNET XXXIII.
[Next when the boundlesse furie of my sunne]
Next when the boundlesse furie of my sunneBegan in higher Climates to take fier,
And with it somewhat kindled my desier,
Then least I should haue wholy bene vndonne
(For now mine age had thrise seuen winters ronne)
VVith studies, and with labours did I tyer
Mine itching fancies, which did still aspier:
Then from those obiectes (which their force begonne
Through wandring furie to possesse mine hart)
Mine eyes there vaine seducers I did fixe
On Pallas, and on Mars, home, and in field,
And armed strongly least my better part
To milder obiectes should it selfe immixe,
I vow'd I neuer would to bewtie yeeld.
