Sonnet 68: Interlude 2
(Crown of Sonnets 2)

A heart can change and therefore break apart
Upon the sight of two eloping friends;
Imagine how it makes our poet start,
His mouth agape, his widened eyes, which sends
Him on the verge of tears to know his prince
Is now embracing her, a fallen Eve.
Oh, can't our youthful prince see through her lies, since
She aims to dupe him with her make-believe?
Oh, can't he take the hint and drop her there,
When every guise she dons is full of holes?
Oh, can't he see beyond her face so fair
And peer into the blackest of all souls?
      And yet, the prince holds close upon her word,
      His heart held captive like a cagèd bird.
