jurriaan andriessen - sonnet no. 9 lyrics

Loading...

is it for fear to wet a widow’s eye
that thou consum’st thy self in single life?
ah! if thou issueless shalt hap to die
the world will wail thee like a makeless wife;
the world will be thy widow and still weep
that thou no form of thee hast left behind
when every private widow well may keep
by children’s eyes, her husband’s shape in mind:
look what an unthrift in the world doth spend
shifts but his place, for still the world enjoys it;
but beauty’s waste hath in the world an end
and kept unused the user so dеstroys it
no love toward others in that bosom sits
that on himself such murd’rous shamе commits
