Sonnet 90

Then1 hate me when thou wilt, if ever, now,

Now, while the world is bent2 my deeds to cross,

Join with the spite of fortune, make me bow,

And do not drop in for an after-loss4.

Ah do not, when my heart hath scaped5 this sorrow,

Come in the rearward of a conquered woe6,

Give not a windy night a rainy morrow

To linger out a purposed overthrow8.

If thou wilt leave me, do not leave me last,

When other petty griefs have done their spite,

But in the onset11 come: so shall I taste

At first the very worst of fortune’s might,

And other strains13 of woe, which now seem woe,

Compared with loss of thee will not seem so.
