Shakespeare's Sonnet CXLIX / CLIV
01 : Canst thou, O cruel! say I love thee not,
02 : When I against myself with thee partake?
03 : Do I not think on thee, when I forgot
04 : Am of my self, all tyrant, for thy sake?
05 : Who hateth thee that I do call my friend,
06 : On whom frown'st thou that I do fawn upon,
07 : Nay, if thou lour'st on me, do I not spend
08 : Revenge upon myself with present moan?
09 : What merit do I in my self respect,
10 : That is so proud thy service to despise,
11 : When all my best doth worship thy defect,
12 : Commanded by the motion of thine eyes?
13 : But, love, hate on, for now I know thy mind,;
14 : Those that can see thou lov'st, and I am blind.
