| <BLOCKQUOTE>O, never say that I was false of heart,<BR> | |
| Though absence seem'd my flame to qualify.<BR> | |
| As easy might I from myself depart<BR> | |
| As from my soul, which in thy breast doth lie:<BR> | |
| That is my home of love: if I have ranged,<BR> | |
| Like him that travels I return again,<BR> | |
| Just to the time, not with the time exchanged,<BR> | |
| So that myself bring water for my stain.<BR> | |
| Never believe, though in my nature reign'd<BR> | |
| All frailties that besiege all kinds of blood,<BR> | |
| That it could so preposterously be stain'd,<BR> | |
| To leave for nothing all thy sum of good;<BR> | |
| For nothing this wide universe I call,<BR> | |
| Save thou, my rose; in it thou art my all.<BR> | |
