the marlowe society - sonnet 143 lyrics

Loading...

lo, as a careful housewife runs to catch
one of her feather’d creatures broke away
sets down her babe, and makes all swift dispatch
in pursuit of the thing she would have stay;
whilst her neglected child holds her in chase
cries to catch her whose busy care is bent
to follow that which flies before her face
not prizing her poor infant’s discontent:
so runn’st thou after that which flies from thee
whilst i thy babe chase thee afar behind;
but if thou catch thy hope, turn back to me
and play the mother’s part, kiss me, be kind:
so will i pray that thou mayst have thy “will,”
if thou turn back and my loud crying still
