But of this wonder, what doth most amaze
Is that we know our love is held for praise.
But of this wonder, what doth most amaze
Is that we know our love is held for praise.
She loves me first because I love her, then
Loves me for knowing why she should be loved,
And that I love to praise her, loves again.
Baffled but not dishearten'd she took flight
Scheming new tactics: Love came home with me,
And prompts my measured verses as I write.
And yet, O lover, thee, the ruin'd one,
Love who hath humbled thus hath also crown'd.
