Samuel Daniel - Sonnet V: Whilst Youth and ErrorSamuel Daniel - Sonnet V: Whilst Youth and Error
Work rating: Low


Whilst youth and error led my wand`ring mind And set my thoughts in heedless ways to range, All unawares a goddes chaste I find, Diana-like, to work my sudden change. For her no sooner had my view bewray`d, But with disdain to see me in that place; With fairest hand, the sweet unkindest maid Casts water-cold disdain upon my face. Which turn`d my sport into a hart`s despair, Which still is chas`d, whilst I have any breath, By mine own thoughts; set on me by my fair, My thoughts like hounds, pursue me to my death. Those that I foster`d of mine own accord, Are made by her to murder thus their lord.
