Sonnet 75 – Edmund Spenser One day I wrote her name upon the strand,a But came the waves and washed it away;b Again I wrote it with a second hand,a But came the tide, and made my pains his prey. b “Vain man,” said she, “that dost in vain assay,b A mortal thing so to immortalize, c For I myself shall like to this decay, b And eke my name be wiped out likewise.”c “Not so,” quod, I “let baser things devisec To die in dust, but you shall live by fame:d My verse your virtues rare shall eternize, c And in the heavens write your glorious name. d Where whenas death shall all the world subdue,g Our love shall live, and later life renew.”g

Origin – Petrarch’s #169 Handout Rapt in the one fond thought that makes me stray From other men and walk this world alone Sometimes I have escaped myself and flown To seek the very one that I should flee; So fair and fell I see her passing by That the soul trembles to take flight again, So many armed sighs are in her train, This lovely foe to Love himself and me! And yet upon that high and clouded brow shine, I seem to see a ray of pity shine, Shedding some light across the grieving heart: So I call back my soul, and when I vow, pain At last to tell her of my hidden pain I have so much to say I dare not start.
