Thomas Carew - To My Inconstant MistressThomas Carew - To My Inconstant Mistress
Work rating: Medium


When thou, poor excommunicat e         From all the joys of love, shalt see     The full reward and glorious fate         Which my strong faith shall purchase me,         Then curse thine own inconstancy.     A fairer hand than thine shall cure         That heart, which thy false oaths did wound;     And to my soul, a soul more pure         Than thine shall by Love`s hand be bound,       And both with equal glory crown`d.   Then shalt thou weep, entreat, complain       To Love, as I did once to thee;   When all thy tears shall be as vain       As mine were then, for thou shalt be       Damn`d for thy false apostasy.
