A Sonnet: A Sonnet

A Sonnet

WEEPING, murmuring, complaining,
Lost to every gay delight;
MYRA, too sincere for feigning,
Fears th' approaching bridal night.
Yet, why impair thy bright perfection?                           5
Or dim thy beauty with a tear?
Had MYRA followed my direction,
She long had wanted cause of fear.
