The Sonnets CLII - In loving thee thou knowst I am forsworn
In loving thee thou knowst I am forsworn, But thou art twice forsworn, to me love swearing; In act thy bed-vow broke, and new faith torn, In vowing new hate after new love bearing: But why of two oaths breach do I accuse thee, When I break twenty? I am perjurd most; For all my vows are oaths but to misuse thee, And all my honest faith in thee is lost: For I have sworn deep oaths of thy deep kindness, Oaths of thy love, thy truth, thy constancy; And, to enlighten thee, gave eyes to blindness, Or made them swear against the thing they see; For I have sworn thee fair; more perjurd I, To swear against the truth so foul a lie.!
