Some glory in their birth, some in their skill,　　Some in their wealth, some in their bodies' force,　　Some in their garments, though new-fangled ill,　　Some in their hawks and hounds, some in their horse;　　And every humour hath his adjunct pleasure,　　Wherein it finds a joy above the rest:　　But these particulars are not my measure;　　All these I better in one general best.

　　Thy love is better than high birth to me,　　Richer than wealth, prouder than garments' cost,　　Of more delight than hawks or horses be;　　And having thee, of all men's pride I boast:　　Wretched in this alone, that thou mayst take　　All this away and me most wretched make.

　　有人夸耀门第，有人夸耀技巧，　　有人夸耀财富，有人夸耀体力;　　有人夸耀新妆，丑怪尽管时髦;　　有人夸耀鹰犬，有人夸耀骏骥;　　每种嗜好都各饶特殊的趣味，　　每一种都各自以为其乐无穷：　　可是这些癖好都不合我口胃--　　我把它们融入更大的乐趣中。

　　你的爱对我比门第还要豪华，　　比财富还要丰裕，比艳妆光彩，　　它的乐趣远胜过鹰犬和骏马;　　有了你，我便可以笑傲全世界：　　只有这点可怜：你随时可罢免　　我这一切，使我成无比的可怜。
