she were scarce anything �察�and then�察�should she
be more than woman�察�she would get above
all thought of sex�察�and think to move
my heart to study her�察�and not to love。
both these were monsters �察�since there must reside
falsehood in woman�察�i could more abide�察�
she were by art�察�than nature falsified。
live�察�primrose�察�then�察�and thrive
with thy true number five �察�
and�察�woman�察�whom this flower doth represent�察�
with this mysterious number be content �察�
ten is the farthest number �察�if half ten
belongs to each woman�察�then
each woman may take half us men �察�
or!if this will not serve their turn!since all
numbers are odd�察�or even�察�and they fall
first into five�察�women may take us all。

the relic。
when my grave is broke up again
some second guest to entertain��
!for graves have learnd that woman´head��
to be to more than one a bed!
and he that digs it�察�spies
a bracelet of bright hair about the bone��
will he not let us alone��
and think that there a loving couple lies��
who thought that this device might be some way
to make their souls at the last busy day
meet at this grave�察�and make a little stay��
if this fall in a time�察�or land��
where mass´devotion doth mand��
then he that digs us up will bring
us to the bishop or the king��
to make us relics �察�then
thou shalt be a mary magdalen�察�and i
a something else thereby ��
all women shall adore us�察�and some men。
and�察�since at such time miracles are sought��
i would have that age by this paper taught
what miracles we harmless lovers wrought。
first we loved well and faithfully��
yet knew not what we loved�察�nor why ��
difference of sex we never knew��
no more than guardian angels do ��
ing and going we
perchance might kiss�察�but not between those meals ��
our hands neer touchd the seals��
which nature�察�injured by late law�察�sets free。
these miracles we did �察�but now alas ��
all measure�察�and all language�察�i should pass��
should i tell what a miracle she was。
the damp。
when i am dead�察�and doctors know not why��
and my friends curiosity
will have me cut up to survey each part��
when they shall find your picture in my heart��
you think a sudden damp of love
will thorough all their senses move��
and work on them as me�察�and so prefer
your murder to the name of massacre��
poor victories �察�but if you dare be brave��
and pleasure in your conquest have��
first kill th enormous giant�察�your disdain ��
and let th enchantress honour�察�next be slain ��
and like a goth and vandal rise��
deface records and histories
of your own arts and triumphs over men��
and without such advantage kill me then��
for i could muster up�察�as well as you��
my giants�察�and my witches too��
which are vast constancy and secretness ��
but these i neither look for nor profess ��
kill me as woman�察�let me die
as a mere man �察�do you but try
your passive valour�察�and you shall find then��
naked you have odds enough of any man。
the dissolution。
shes dead �察�and all which die
to their first elements resolve ��
and we were mutual elements to us��
and made of one another。
my body then doth hers involve��
and those things whereof i consist hereby
in me abundant grow�察�and burdenous��
and nourish not�察�but smother。
my fire of passion�察�sighs of air��
water of tears�察�and earthly sad despair��
which my materials be��
but near worn out by loves security��
she�察�to my loss�察�doth by her death repair。
and i might live long wretched so��
but that my fire doth with my fuel grow。
now�察�as those active kings
whose foreign conquest treasure brings��
receive more�察�and spend more�察�and soonest break��
this !which i am amazed that i can speak!
this death�察�hath with my store
my use increased。
and so my soul�察�more earnestly released��
will outstrip hers �察�as bullets flown before
a latter bullet may oertake�察�the powder being more。
a jet ring sent。
thou art not so black as my heart�察�
nor half so brittle as her heart�察�thou art �察�
what wouldst thou say �拭�shall both our properties by thee be spoke�察�
!nothing more endless�察�nothing sooner broke�拭�
marriage rings are not of this stuff �察�
oh�察�why should ought less precious�察�or less tough
figure our loves �拭�except in thy name thou have bid it say�察�
;!im cheap�察�and nought but fashion �察�fling me away。;
yet stay with me since thou art e�察�
circle this fingers top�察�which didst her thumb �察�
be justly proud�察�and gladly safe�察�that thou dost dwell with me �察�
she that�察�o � �broke her faith�察�would soon break thee。
negative love。
i never stoopd so low�察�as they
which on an eye�察�cheek�察�lip�察�can prey ��
seldom to them which soar no higher
than virtue�察�or the mind to admire。
for sense and understanding may
know what gives fuel to their fire �察�
my love�察�though silly�察�is more brave �察�
for may i miss�察�wheneer i crave�察�
if i know yet what i would have。
if that be simply perfectest��
which can by no way be expressd
but negatives�察�my love is so。
to all�察�which all love�察�i say no。
if any who deciphers best�察�
what we know not!ourselves!can know�察�
let him teach me that nothing。 this
as yet my ease and fort is�察�
though i speed not�察�i cannot miss。
the prohibition。
take heed of loving me ��
at least remember�察�i forbade it thee ��
not that i shall repair my unthrifty waste
of breath and blood�察�upon thy sighs and tears��
by being to thee then what to me thou wast ��
but so great joy our life at once outwears。
then�察�lest thy love by my death frustrate be��
if thou love me�察�take heed of loving me。
take heed of hating me��
or too much triumph in the victory ��
not that i shall be mine own officer��
and hate with hate again retaliate ��
but thou wilt lose the style of conqueror��
if i�察�thy conquest�察�perish by thy hate。
then�察�lest my being nothing lessen thee��
if thou hate me�察�take heed of hating me。
yet love and hate me too ��
so these extremes shall neer their office do ��
love me�察�that i may die the gentler way ��
hate me�察�because thy loves too great for me ��
or let these two�察�themselves�察�not me�察�decay ��
so shall i live thy stage�察�not triumph be。
lest thou thy love and hate�察�and me undo��
o let me live�察�yet love and hate me too。
the expiration。
so�察�so�察�break off this last lamenting kiss��
which sucks two souls�察�and vapours both away ��
turn�察�thou ghost�察�that way�察�and let me turn this��
and let ourselves benight our happiest day。
we ask none leave to love �察�nor will we owe
any so cheap a death as saying�察 �go。;
go �察�and if that word have not quite killed thee��
ease me with death�察�by bidding me go too。
or�察�if it have�察�let my word work on me��
and a just office on a murderer do。
except it be too late�察�to kill me so��
being double dead�察�going�察�and bidding�察 �go。;
the putation。
for my first twenty years�察�since yesterday��
i scarce believed thou couldst be gone away �察�
for forty more i fed on favours past�察�
and forty on hopes that thou wouldst they might last �察�
tears drownd one hundred�察�and sighs blew out two ��
a thousand�察�i did neither think nor do�察�
or not divide�察�all being one thought of you ��
or in a thousand more�察�forgot that too。
yet call not this long life �察�but think that i
am�察�by being dead�察�immortal �察�can ghosts die �拭�
the paradox。
no lover saith�察�i love�察�nor any other
can judge a perfect lover �察�
he thinks that else none can or will agree��
that any loves but he ��
i cannot say i loved�察�for who can say
he was killd yesterday。
love with excess of heat�察�more young than old�察�
death kills with too much cold ��
we die but once�察�and who loved last did die�察�
he that saith�察�twice�察�doth lie ��
for though he seem to move�察�and stir a while��
it doth the sense beguile。
such life is like the light which bideth yet
when the lifes light is set��
or like the heat which fire in solid matter
leaves behind�察�two hours after。
once i loved and died �察�and am now bee
mine epitaph and tomb ��
here dead men speak their last�察�and so do i ��
love´slain�察�lo � �here i die。
song。
souls joy�察�now i am gone��
and you alone��
!which cannot be��
since i must leave myself with thee��
and carry thee with me!
yet when unto our eyes
absence denies
each others sight��
and makes to us a constant night��
when others change to light ��
o give no way to grief��
but let belief
of mutual love
this wonder to the vulgar prove��
our bodies�察�not we move。
let not thy wit beweep
words but sense deep ��
for when we miss
by distance our hopes joining bliss��
even then our souls shall kiss ��
fools have no means to meet��
but by their feet ��
why should our clay
over our spirits so much sway��
to tie us to that way��
o give no way to grief�察�&c。
farewell to love。
whilst yet to prove
i thought there was some deity in love�察�
so did i reverence�察�and gave
worship �察�as atheists at their dying hour
call�察�what they cannot name�察�an unknown power�察�
as
