(0)Sonnet XXX
WHEN to the sessions of sweet silent thought
I summon up remembrance of things past,
I sigh the lack of many a thing I sought,
And with old woes new wail my dear times waste:
Then can I drown an eye, unusd to flow,
For precious friends hid in deaths dateless night,
And weep afresh loves long since cancelld woe,
And moan the expense of many a vanishd sight:
Then can I grieve at grievances foregone,
And heavily from woe to woe tell oer
The sad account of fore-bemoaned moan,
Which I new pay as if not paid before.
But if the while I think on thee, dear friend,
All losses are restord and sorrows end.Text from The Oxford Shakespeare at Bartleby.
