Viii. Escalation - A - (sonnet Xxx) lyrics

When to the sessions of sweet silent thought
I summon up remembrance of things past,
I sigh the lack of many a thing I sought,
And with old woes new wail my dear time s waste:
Then can I drown an eye, unused to flow,
For precious friends hid in death s dateless night,
And weep afresh love s long since cancell d woe,
And moan the expense of many a vanish d sight:
Then can I grieve at grievances foregone,
And heavily from woe to woe tell o er
The sad account of fore-bemoaned moan,
Which I new pay as if not paid before.
     But if the while I think on thee, dear friend,
     All losses are restored and sorrows end.
