\u201cThe locks between her chamber and his will,
Each one by him enforced, retires his ward;
But, as they open, they all rate his ill,
Which drives the creeping thief to some regard:
The threshold grates the door to have him heard;
Night-wandering weasels shriek to see him there;
They fright him, yet he still pursues his fear.<\/p>

As each unwilling portal yields him way,
Through little vents and crannies of the place
The wind wars with his torch to make him stay,
And blows the smoke of it into his face,
Extinguishing his conduct in this case;
But his hot heart, which fond desire doth scorch,
Puffs forth another wind that fires the torch:<\/p>

And being lighted, by the light he spies
Lucretia\u2019s glove, wherein her needle sticks:
He takes it from the rushes where it lies,
And griping it, the needle his finger pricks;
As who should say \u2018This glove to wanton tricks
Is not inured; return again in haste;
Thou see\u2019st our mistress\u2019 ornaments are chaste.\u2019<\/p>

But all these poor forbiddings could not stay him;
He in the worst sense construes their denial:
The doors, the wind, the glove, that did delay him,
He takes for accidental things of trial;
Or as those bars which stop the hourly dial,
Who with a lingering slay his course doth let,
Till every minute pays the hour his debt.<\/p>

\u2018So, so,\u2019 quoth he, \u2018these lets attend the time,
Like little frosts that sometime threat the spring,
To add a more rejoicing to the prime,
And give the sneaped birds more cause to sing.
Pain pays the income of each precious thing;
Huge rocks, high winds, strong pirates, shelves and sands,
The merchant fears, ere rich at home he lands.\u2019<\/p>

Now is he come unto the chamber-door,
That shuts him from the heaven of his thought,
Which with a yielding latch, and with no more,
Hath barr\u2019d him from the blessed thing be sought.
So from himself impiety hath wrought,
That for his prey to pray he doth begin,
As if the heavens should countenance his sin.<\/p>

But in the midst of his unfruitful prayer,
Having solicited th\u2019 eternal power
That his foul thoughts might compass his fair fair,
And they would stand auspicious to the hour,
Even there he starts: quoth he, \u2018I must deflower:
The powers to whom I pray abhor this fact,
How can they then assist me in the act?<\/p>

\u2018Then Love and Fortune be my gods, my guide!
My will is back\u2019d with resolution:
Thoughts are but dreams till their effects be tried;
The blackest sin is clear\u2019d with absolution;
Against love\u2019s fire fear\u2019s frost hath dissolution.
The eye of heaven is out, and misty night
Covers the shame that follows sweet delight.\u2019 \u201d<\/p><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div>\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t
