Sonnet 129

　　The expense of spirit in a waste of shame

　　Is lust in action；and till action，lust

　　Is perjured，murd'rous，bloody，full of blame，

　　Savage，extreme，rude，cruel，not to trust，

　　Enjoyed no sooner but despised straight，

　　Past reason hunted；and no sooner had，

　　Past reason hated，as a swallowed bait，

　　On purpose laid to make the taker mad；

　　Mad in pursuit，and in possession so，

　　Had，having，and in quest to have，extreme；

　　A bliss
