Sonnet XXXVIII

There are those there enfaced with vulgar fear

Not caring of thine own injustice proved

Each thrust of might castoff for whom they hear

And grieving whence that pleasure much removed

Falsehood afoot floating upon thin air

Where gusts rage henceforth mired in destruction

Holding firmly in thy displeasure dare

And even thence beg hallowed unction

Thou, in utmost wariness, mine own woe

Such discomfort lock’d up in deep recess

Loudly with unrequited passion crow

Noting all wrong grown in thine consciousness

That grief and pain art void of happiness

Art born in thy ultimate thoughtlessness.
