I can give the loser leave to chide.
This is a way to kill a wife with kindness.
The apparel oft proclaims the man.
That you were once unkind befriends me now, And for that sorrow, which I then did feel, Needs must I under my transgression bow, Unless my nerves were brass or hammered steel.
Too early seen unknown, and known too late!
I desire you in friendship, and I will one way or other make you amends.
