Էջ 164 - Either in discourse of thought or actual deed, Or that mine eyes, mine ears, or any sense, Delighted them in any other form ; Or that I do not yet, and ever did, And ever will — though he do shake me off To beggarly divorcement — love him dearly, Comfort forswear me ! Unkindness may do much ; And his unkindness may defeat my life, But never taint my love.
