Document Summary
Her whom abundance melts, and her whom want betrays; Her who loves loneness best, and her who masks and plays; Her whom the country form"d, and whom the town; And her who is dry cork, and never cries. I can love her, and her, and you, and you; (no longer in the 1st person now he is talking in the 2nd person) I can love any, so she be not true. Will no other vice content you? (speaking to the women) Rob me, but bind me not, and let me go. Must i, who came to travel thorough you, Venus heard me sigh this song; (change in person) And by love"s sweetest part, variety, she swore, She heard not this till now; and that it should be so no more. But i have told them, "since you will be true, You shall be true to them who"re false to you. "
