is love； or； that love childish is ； let me not know that others know that she knows my paines； lest that so a tender shame make me mine own new woe。 if thou give nothing； yet thou rt just； because i would not thy first motions trust ； small towns which stand stiff； till great shot enforce them； by wars law condition not ； such in loves warfare is my case ； i may not article for grace； having put love at last to show this face。 this face； by which he could mand and change th idolatry of any land； this face； which； wheresoeer it es； can call vowd men from cloisters； dead from tombs； and melt both poles at once； and store deserts with cities； and make more mines in the earth； than quarries were before。 for this love is enraged with me； yet kills not ； if i must example be to future rebels； if th unborn must learn by my being cut up and torn； kill； and dissect me； love ； for this torture against thine own end is ； rackd carcasses make ill anatomies。 confined love。 some man unworthy to be possessor of old or new love； himself being false or weak； thought his pain and shame would be lesser； if on womankind he might his anger wreak ； and thence a law did grow； one might but one man know ； but are other creatures so？ are sun； moon； or stars by law forbidden to smile where they list； or lend away their light？ are birds divorced or are they chidden if they leave their mate； or lie abroad a night？ beasts do no jointures lose though they new lovers choose ； but we are made worse than those。 who eer riggd fair ships to lie in harbours； and not to seek lands； or not to deal with all？ or built fair houses； set trees； and arbours； only to lock up； or else to let them fall？ good is not good； unless a thousand it possess； but doth waste with greediness。 the dream。 dear love； for nothing less than thee would i have broke this happy dream ； it was a theme for reason； much too strong for fantasy。 therefore thou wakedst me wisely ； yet my dream thou brokest not； but continuedst it。 thou art so true that thoughts of thee suffice to make dreams truths； and fables histories ； enter these arms； for since thou thoughtst it best； not to dream all my dream； lets act the rest。 as lightning； or a tapers light； thine eyes； and not thy noise waked me ； yet i thought thee —for thou lovest truth—an angel； at first sight ； but when i saw thou sawst my heart； and knewst my thoughts beyond an angels art； when thou knewst what i dreamt； when thou knewst when excess of joy would wake me； and camest then； i must confess； it could not choose but be profane； to think thee any thing but thee。 ing and staying showd thee； thee； but rising makes me doubt； that now thou art not thou。 that love is weak where fears as strong as he ； tis not all spirit； pure and brave； if mixture it of fear； shame； honour have ； perchance as torches； which must ready be； men light and put out； so thou dealst with me ； thou camest to kindle； gost to e ； then i will dream that hope again； but else would die。 ．co John Donne Selected Poems…6 （小//说；网/ a valediction of weeping。 let me pour forth my tears before thy face； whilst i stay here； for thy face coins them； and thy stamp they bear； and by this mintage they are something worth。 for thus they be pregnant of thee ； fruits of much grief they are； emblems of more ； when a tear falls； that thou fallst which it bore ； so thou and i are nothing then； when on a divers shore。 on a round ball a workman； that hath copies by； can lay an europe； afric； and an asia； and quickly make that； which was nothing； all。 so doth each tear； which thee doth wear； a globe； yea world； by that impression grow； till thy tears mixd with mine do overflow this world； by waters sent from thee； my heaven dissolvèd so。 o ！ more than moon； draw not up seas to drown me in thy sphere ； weep me not dead； in thine arms； but forbear to teach the sea； what it may do too soon ； let not the wind example find to do me more harm than it purposeth ： since thou and i sigh one anothers breath； whoeer sighs most is cruellest； and hastes the others death。 loves alchemy。 some that have deeper diggd loves mine than i； say； where his centric happiness doth lie。 i have loved； and got； and told； but should i love； get； tell； till i were old； i should not find that hidden mystery。 o ！ tis imposture all ； and as no chemic yet th elixir got； but glorifies his pregnant pot； if by the way to him befall some odoriferous thing； or medicinal； so； lovers dream a rich and long delight； but get a winter…seeming summers night。 our ease； our thrift； our honour； and our day； shall we for this vain bubbles shadow pay？ ends love in this； that my man can be as happy as i can； if he can endure the short scorn of a bridegrooms play？ that loving wretch that swears； tis not the bodies marry； but the minds； which he in her angelic finds； would swear as justly； that he hears； in that days rude hoarse minstrelsy； the spheres。 hope not for mind in women ； at their best； sweetness and wit they are； but mummy； possessd。 the curse。 whoever guesses； thinks； or dreams； he knows who is my mistress； wither by this curse ； him； only for his purse may some dull whore to love dispose； and then yield unto all that are his foes ； may he be scornd by one； whom all else scorn； forswear to others； what to her he hath sworn； with fear of missing； shame of getting； torn。 madness his sorrow； gout his cramps； may he make； by but thinking who hath made him such ； and may he feel no touch of conscience； but of fame； and be anguishd； not that twas sin； but that twas she ； or may he for her virtue reverence one that hates him only for impotence； and equal traitors be she and his sense。 may he dream treason； and believe that he meant to perform it； a
