Rhyme Scheme: ABABCDCDEFEFGGThat god forbid that made me first your slave | A |
I should in thought control your times of pleasure | B |
Or at your hand th' account of hours to crave | A |
Being your vassal bound to stay your leisure | B |
O let me suffer being at your beck | C |
Th' imprisoned absence of your liberty | D |
And patience tame to sufferance bide each check | C |
Without accusing you of injury | D |
Be where you list your charter is so strong | E |
That you your self may privilage your time | F |
To what you will to you it doth belong | E |
Your self to pardon of self doing crime | F |
I am to wait though waiting so be hell | G |
Not blame your pleasure be it ill or well | G |
