- I Find No Peace
- Thomas Wyatt
- Exported from Wikisource on 01/16/20
- I find no peace, and all my war is done,
- I fear and hope, I burn and freeze like ice.
- I fly above the wind, yet can I not arise,
- And naught I have, and all the world I seize on.
- That looseth nor locketh holdeth me in prison,
- And holdeth me not, yet can I 'scape nowise;
- Nor letteth me live nor die at my device,
- And yet of death it giveth me occasion.
- Without eyen I see, and without tongue I plain;
- I desire to perish, and yet I ask health;
- I love another, and thus I hate myself;
- I feed me in sorrow, and laugh in all my pain.
- Likewise displeaseth me both death and life,
- And my delight is causer of this strife.
