Patience, though I have not The thing that I require,I must of force, God wot,Forbear my most desire;For no ways can I findTo sail against the wind.Patience, do what they willTo work me woe or spite,I shall content me stillTo think both day and night;To think and hold my peace,Since there is no redress.Patience, withouten blame,For I offended nought,I know they know the same,Though they have changed their thought.Was ever thought so movedTo hate that it hath loved?Patience of all my harm,For fortune is my foe;Patience must be the charmTo heal me of my woe.Patience without offenceIs a painful patience.
