135 And tear the stain’d skin [off] my harlot-brow,

And from my false hand cut the wedding-ring,

And break it with a deep-divorcing vow?

I know thou [canst]; and therefore see thou do it.

I am possess’d with an adulterate blot;

140 My blood is mingled with the [crime] of lust:

For if we two be one, and thou play false,

I do digest the poison of [thy] flesh,

Being strumpeted by thy [contagion].

Keep, then, fair league and truce with thy true bed;
