Sonnet 90 in the 1609 Quarto.
This sonnet is part of the sequence, numbers 1–126, dedicated to The Fair Youth. The identity of the young man is unknown to this day, although various possibilities have been speculated.
Sonnet 90 continues themes of loss, bitterness and self-abasement that appear i...
Then hate me when thou wilt; if ever, now;
Now, while the world is bent my deeds to cross,
Join with the spite of fortune, make me bow,
And do not drop in for an after-loss:
Ah! do not, when my heart hath 'scaped this sorrow,
Come in the rearward of a conquered woe;
Give not a windy night a rainy morrow,
To linger out a purposed overthrow.
If thou wilt leave me, do not leave me last,
When other petty griefs have done their spite,
But in the onset come: so shall I taste
At first the very worst of fortune's might;
And other strains of woe, which now seem woe,
Compared with loss of thee, will not seem so.
Sonnet 90 was written by William Shakespeare.
