Forget not yet
20 lines✦
orget not yet the tried intentOf such a truth as I have meant;My great travail so gladly spent,Forget not yet! Forget not yet when first beganThe weary life ye know, since whenThe suit, the service, none tell can;Forget not yet! Forget not yet the great essays,The cruel wrong, the scornful ways,The painful patience in denays,Forget not yet! Forget not yet, forget not this,How long ago hath been, and is,The mind that never meant amiss--Forget not yet! Forget not then thine own approved,The which so long hath thee so loved,Whose steadfast faith yet never moved:Forget not this!
