For other versions of this work, see Sonnet 10 (Shakespeare).
10For shame deny that thou bear'st loue to anyWho for thy selfe art so vnprouidentGraunt if thou wilt, thou art belou'd of many,But that thou none lou'st is most euident:For thou art so possest with murdrous hate,That gainst thy selfe thou stickst not to conspire,Seeking that beautious roofe to ruinateWhich to repaire should be thy chiefe desire:O change thy thought, that I may change my minde,Shall hate be fairer log'd then gentle loue?Be as thy presence is gracious and kind,Or to thy selfe at least kind harted proue,Make thee an other selfe for loue of me,That beauty still may liue in thine or thee.
