About

Text from Sonnet 120 in the 1609 Quarto.

It is generally agreed that this, like others in the sonnet sequence was written for a man. It belongs to the Fair Youth sequence of sonnets–numbers 1–126–which was dedicated to a “Mr. W.H.” Popular candidates for the identity of W.H. include Henry Wriothes...

Sonnet 120 Annotated

That you were once unkind befriends me now,
And for that sorrow, which I then did feel,
Needs must I under my transgression bow,
Unless my nerves were brass or hammered steel.
For if you were by my unkindness shaken,
As I by yours, you've passed a hell of time;
And I, a tyrant, have no leisure taken
To weigh how once I suffered in your crime.
O! that our night of woe might have remembered
My deepest sense, how hard true sorrow hits,
And soon to you, as you to me, then tendered
The humble salve, which wounded bosoms fits!
But that your trespass now becomes a fee;
Mine ransoms yours, and yours must ransom me.
