Sonnet 46 by W. Shakespeare

Mine eye and heart are at a mortal war,
How to divide the conquest of thy sight;
Mine eye my heart thy picture's sight would bar,
My heart mine eye the freedom of that right.
My heart doth plead that thou in him dost lie,—
A closet never pierc'd with crystal eyes,—
But the defendant doth that plea deny,
And says in him thy fair appearance lies.
To 'cide this title is impanelled
A quest of thoughts, all tenants to the heart;
And by their verdict is determined
The clear eye's moiety and the dear heart's part:
   As thus ; mine eye's due is thine outward part,
   And my heart's right thine inward love of heart.

Sonnet 46 (Mine eye and heart are at a mortal war) from Sonnets by William Shakespeare.
