No more be
grieved at that which thou hast done,
Roses have
thorns, and silver fountains mud,
Clouds and
eclipses stain both moon and sun,
And
loathsome canker lives in sweetest bud.
All men
make faults, and even I in this,
Authorizing
thy trespass with compare,
My self
corrupting salving thy amiss,
Excusing
thy sins more than thy sins are:
For to thy
sensual fault I bring in sense,
Thy
adverse party is thy advocate,
And
'gainst my self a lawful plea commence:
Such civil
war is in my love and hate,
That I an
accessary needs must be,
To that
sweet thief which sourly robs from me.
