Henry Wriothesley
Patron to William Shakespeare.
Sonnet XX – William Shakespeare
A woman's face with natures own hand painted
Hast though the master-mistress of my passion;
A woman's gentle heart, but not aquainted
With shifting change, as is false woman's fashion;
An eye more bright than theirs, less false in rolling
Gilding the object whereupon it gazeth
A man in hue all hues in his controlling
Which steals men's eyes and women's souls amazeth.
And for a woman wert though first created;
Till Nature, as she wrought thee, fell a-doting,
And by addition me of thee defeated,
While adding one thing to my purpose nothing.
But since she pick'd thee out for women's pleasure,
Mine be thy love and thy love's use their treasure
