Against
that time (if ever that time come)
When I
shall see thee frown on my defects,
When as
thy love hath cast his utmost sum,
Called to
that audit by advised respects,
Against
that time when thou shalt strangely pass,
And
scarcely greet me with that sun thine eye,
When love
converted from the thing it was
Shall
reasons find of settled gravity;
Against
that time do I ensconce me here
Within the
knowledge of mine own desert,
And this
my hand, against my self uprear,
To guard
the lawful reasons on thy part,
To leave
poor me, thou hast the strength of laws,
Since why
to love, I can allege no cause.
