Sonnet III

When I do think my meanest line shall

More in Time's use than my creating whole,

That future eyes more clearly shall feel

In this inked page than in my direct soul;

When I conjecture put to make me

Good readers of me in some aftertime,

Thankful to some idea of my

That doth not even my with gone true soul rime;

An anger at the essence of the world,

That makes this thus, or thinkable this wise,

Takes my soul by the throat and makes it

In nightly horrors of despaired surmise,  And I become the mere sense of a rage  That lacks the very words whose waste might 'suage.
