018.NP1.0HE %X%1A Deprecatory%2, /%1To his M%5rs%6 (after Wife) who would have accompanied%2 /%1Him in y%5e%6 disguise of a Page, when Hee went to travaile%2.
018.NP1.001 By o%5r%6 first strange and fatall Enterview,
018.NP1.002 By all Desires w%5ch%6 thereof doe ensue,
018.NP1.003 By o%5r%6 long striving Hopes, by y%5t%6 Remorce
018.NP1.004 W%5ch%6 my Words Masculine perswasive force
018.NP1.005 Begott in Thee, and by y%5e%6 Memory
018.NP1.006 Of Hurts, w%5ch%6 Spies and Rivalls threatned mee,

018.NP1.010 And Thou have sworne to seale joynt-constancy,
018.NP1.011 Here I unsweare, and overs-weare them thus,
018.NP1.012 Thou shalt not love by meanes so daungerous.
018.NP1.013 Temper (o%C faire Love) Loves impetuous rage;
018.NP1.014 Bee my true M%5rs%6 still, not my fain'd Page.
018.NP1.015 I'le goe, and by thy kind leave leave behind
018.NP1.016 Thee, only worthy to nurse in my mind
018.NP1.017 Thirst to come back; Oh if thou dy before,
018.NP1.018 From other Lands towards Thee my Soule shall soare.
018.NP1.019 Thy (else Almighty) Beauty cannot remove
018.NP1.020 Rage from y%5e%6 seas, nor Thy Love teach them Love,
018.NP1.021 Nor tame y%5e%6 Wild Boares harshnes, Thou has read
018.NP1.022 How roughly Hee in peices shivered
018.NP1.023 Faire %1Orithae%La%2, whom Hee swore Hee lov'd;
018.NP1.024 Fall ill or good, 'tis madnes to have prov'd
018.NP1.025 Daunger unurg'd: Feed on this Flattery,
018.NP1.026 That absent Freinds, one in y%5e%6 other bee.
018.NP1.027 Dissemble nothing, not a Boy; Nor change
018.NP1.028 Thy Bodies Habitt, nor Minds: Bee not strange
018.NP1.029 To thy selfe onely. All will spy in thy face
018.NP1.030 A blushing womanly-discovering grace.
018.NP1.031 Richly cloath'd Apes, are call'd Apes; And as soone
018.NP1.032 Eclips'd, as Bright wee call y%5e%6 Moone y%5e%6 Moone.
018.NP1.033 Men of %1Fraunce%2 (changeable %1Chamae%Lleons%2,
018.NP1.034 Spittles of Diseases, shopps of Fashions,
018.NP1.035 Lives Fewellers, and y%5e%6 richest company
018.NP1.036 Of Players w%5ch%6 upon y%5e%6 Worlds stage bee)

018.NP1.038 The indifferent %1Italian%2 as wee passe
018.NP1.039 His warme Land, well content to think thee Page
018.NP1.040 Will haunt thee w%5th%6 such lust and hideous rage
018.NP1.041 As %1Lotts%2 faire Wife was vext! But none of these,
018.NP1.042 Nor spungy Hydroptique %1Dutch%2 shall thee displease,
018.NP1.043 If thou stay here; Oh stay here, for for Thee
018.NP1.044 %1England%2 is onely a worthy Gallery
018.NP1.045 To walke in expectation, till from thence [p.76
018.NP1.046 O%5r%6 greatest King calls thee to his presence.
018.NP1.047 When I am gone, dreame mee some happines,
018.NP1.048 Nor lett thy looks o%5r%6 long hidd love confesse;
018.NP1.049 Nor praise, nor dispraise mee, nor blesse nor curse,
018.NP1.050om                                                       
018.NP1.051 W%5th%6 Midnight startings crying out oh oh -%#%#Nurse   
018.NP1.052 ---Oh my Love is slaine, I saw him goe               
018.NP1.053 O're y%5e%6 white %1Alpes%2 alone, I saw him I            
018.NP1.054 Assail'd, fight, taken, stabb'd, bleed, fall, and die.

018.NP1.0$$ %1ll. 13, 27, 47 ind 3sp; final couplet ind 6-7sp; scribe 
            apparently left out l. 39 and inserted it beside l. 38 when he 
            finished; in l. 51%2 nurse %1looks like it was added as an 
            afterthought to rhyme with%2 curse %1in l. 49--EWS says may be 
            effort to represent dialog, see l. 52; between the the second%2 oh 
            %1and%2 nurse %1in l. 51 is a dash and several blank spaces; there 
            are some changes in the ms. but I cannot tell from the mf what the 
            original readings were--no response from EWS on this note; MS 
            running HE%2 Love Sonnetts.
