Oh, to vex me, contraries meet in one:

Inconstancy unnaturally hath begotA constant habit; that when I would notI change in vows, and in devotion.

As my profane love, and as soon forgot:

As riddlingly distempered, cold and hot,

As praying, as mute; as infinite, as none.

In prayers and flattering speeches I court God:

Tomorrow I quake with true fear of his rod.

So my devout fits come and go

Like a fantastic ague; save that

Those are my best days, when I shake with fear.
