SONET.
His Mistresse unkindnesse.
I pray thee leave, love me no more,
Call backe the heart you gave me;
I but in vaine the Saint adore:
That can, but will not love me.
Call backe the heart you gave me;
I but in vaine the Saint adore:
That can, but will not love me.

Show me no more those funny breasts,
With azure rivelets branched;
Where though my eyes with pleasure feasts,
Yet is my thirst not stanched.
With azure rivelets branched;
Where though my eyes with pleasure feasts,
Yet is my thirst not stanched.
Those poore halfe kisses kill me quite,
Was ever man thus served,
A mid'st the Ocean of delight,
For pleasure to be starved:
Was ever man thus served,
A mid'st the Ocean of delight,
For pleasure to be starved:
O Tantalus, thy paines nere tell,
By me thou art prevented;
No wonder to be plagu'd in hell:
But in heaven to be tormented.
By me thou art prevented;
No wonder to be plagu'd in hell:
But in heaven to be tormented.
