Sonnet 150
O! from what power hast thou this
powerful might
«William Shakespeare»
O from what power hast thou this powerful might,
With insufficiency my
heart to sway,
To make me give the
lie to my true sight,
And swear that brightness
doth not grace the day?
Whence hast thou this
becoming of things ill,
That in the very
refuse of thy deeds,
There is such
strength and warrantise of skill,
That in my mind thy
worst all best exceeds?
Who taught thee how
to make me love thee more,
The more I hear and
see just cause of hate?
O though I love what
others do abhor,
With others thou
shouldst not abhor my state.
If thy unworthiness
raised love in me,
More worthy I to be
beloved of thee.
