love’s labour’s lost: the musical – longaville’s sonnet lyrics

Loading...

longaville
did not the heavenly rhetoric of thine eye
‘gainst whom the world cannot hold argument
persuade my heart to this false perjury?
vows for thee broke deserve not punishment
a woman i forswore; but i will prove
thou being a goddess, i forswore not thee:
my vow was earthly, thou a heavenly love;
thy grace being gain’d cures all disgrace in me
vows are but breath, and breath a vapour is:
then thou, fair sun, which on my earth dost shine

all
exhalest now this vapour-vow!

longaville
in thee it is:
if broken then, it is no fault of mine:
if by me broke, what fool is not so wise
to lose an oath to win a paradise?
oh, would that king, berowne, and dumaine were lovers, too!
