Sonnet VII.
[Whē Loue had first besieg'd my harts strong wal]
Whē Loue had first besieg'd my harts strong wal,rampaird and countermur'd with chastitie,
And had with Ordnance made his tops to fall,
stouping their glory to his surquedry,
I call'd a parley, and withall did craue
some composition, or some friendly peace;
To this request, he his consent soone gaue,
as seeming glad such cruell warrs should cease,
I, (nought mistrusting) opened all the gates,
yea, lodg'd him in the Pallace of my hart,
VVhen (loe) in dead of night he seekes his mates,
and shewes each Traytor how to play his part;
VVith that they fir'de my hart, and thence gan flie,
Their names, Sweet smiles, Faire face, & piercing Eye
