letra de sir phillip sidney - sonnet 53 - in martial sports - richard mitchley

Loading...

in martial sports i had my cunning tried
and yet to break more staves did me address:
while, with the people’s shouts, i must confess
youth, luck, and praise, ev’n fill’d my veins with pride;

when cupid having me his slave descried
in mars’s livery, prancing in the press:
“what now, sir fool,” said he; i would no less
“look here, i say.” i look’d and stella spied

who hard by made a window send forth light
my heart then quak’d, then dazzled were mine eyes;
one hand forgot to rulе, th’other to fight

nor trumpet’s sound i heard, nor friеndly cries;
my foe came on, and beat the air for me
till that her blush taught me my shame to see
