Sonnet XXXIV: Marvel Not, Love
To Admiration
Marvel not, Love, though I thy power admire,Ravish'd a world beyond the farthest thought,And knowing more than ever hath been taught,That I am only starv'd in my desire.Marvel not, Love, though I thy power admire,Aiming at things exceeding all perfection,To Wisdom's self to minister correction,That I am only starv'd in my desire.Marvel not, Love, though I thy power admire,Though my conceit I further seem to bendThan possibly invention can extend,And yet am only starv'd in my desire.If thou wilt wonder, here's the wonder, Love:That this to me doth yet no wonder prove.
