Shall that of me that now contains the stars

Be by the very contained stars survived,

So that this light shall look on that which bars

My life

_____________________________________________________

Let us be sad together

     For a new kind[1] of joy…

Make a false emotion better

     To make[2] a hurt to enjoy…

__________

This possible Fate’s injustitice that all mars

My thought † cannot be wholly unreceived[3]

Yet why should Fate’s injustice be disbelieved?

|4. So all being possible an idle thought may

Who name this with his possible thought way. 

Less idle thoughts, because no truer[4] dismay.|

3. Conjecture cannot fit to the seen world

A garment of its thought untorn or covering,

Nor form its dreams couture an otherworld

Without the sense world its being dead discovering
