Michael Drayton - Idea XX: An evil spirit, your beauty, haunts me still
Work rating: Low

An evil spirit, your beauty, haunts me still,
    Wherewith, alas, I have been long possess`d,
    Which ceaseth not to tempt me to each ill,
    Nor gives me once but one poor minute`s rest.
    In me it speaks, whether I sleep or wake;
    And when by means to drive it out I try,
    With greater torments then it me doth take,
    And tortures me in most extremity.
    Before my face it lays down my despairs,
   And hastes me on unto a sudden death;
   Now tempting me to drown myself in tears,
   And then in sighing to give up my breath.
   Thus am I still provok`d to every evil
   By this good-wicked spirit, sweet angel-devil.
