Sonet 36

Loyr, witnesse thou what was my spotlesse part, Whil'st thou amaz'd to see thy Nymphes so faire, As loth to part thence where they did repaire, Still murm'ring did thy plaints t'each stone impart: Then did mine eyes betake them to my hart, As scorning to behold all those, though rare, And gaz'd vpon her beauties image there, Whose eyes haue furnish'd Cupid many a dart: And as deuoted only vnto her, They did disdaine for to bestow their light, For to be entertain'd with any sight, Saue onely that which made them first to erre. Then famous riuer through the Ocean glide, And tell my loue how constant I abide.
