That god forbid that made me first your slave,
使我臣服于你之前的神靈，
I should in thought control your times of pleasure,
不準我限制你行樂的光陰，
Or at your hand the account of hours to crave,
不準我弄清你如何度過每一個時辰。
Being your vassal, bound to stay your leisure!
即是你的臣下，只能任你縱情。
O, let me suffer, being at your beck,
啊，就讓我遵命自囿于孤獨的牢獄吧，
The imprison'd absence of your liberty;
你既然肆意逍遙，二意三心。
And patience, tame to sufferance, bide each check,
讓我默然忍受你的聲聲呵斥，
Without accusing you of injury.
絕不對你的傷害抱有微詞。
Be where you list, your charter is so strong.
你隨意而往吧，既然你享有特權。
That you yourself may privilege your time
可自由支配你的時間，
To what you will; to you it doth belong
為所欲為吧，你已有特權，
Yourself to pardon of self-doing crime.
可將你的一切罪行赦免。
I am to wait, though waiting so be hell;
我絕不責你尋歡作樂，管它是惡是善，
Not blame your pleasure, be it ill or well.
我只能期待如牢囚，哪怕把牢底坐穿。
