THE Panther knowing that his spotted hyde,  
Doth please all beasts but that his looks them fray:
-> The panther knowing that his spotted hides does please all beasts , though his looks may fray them.

within a bush his dreadfull head doth hide,
to let them gaze whylest he on them may pray.
-> his dreadful head does hide within a bush, to let them gaze while he may pray on them.

Right so my cruell fayre with me doth play,
for with the goodly semblant of her hew:
-> (right) so my cruel fair does play with me, (for) with the goodly semblant of her hue.
she doth allure me to mine owne decay,
and then no mercy will vnto me shew.
- > she does allure me to my own decay, and then will show no mercy unto me.

Great shame it is, thing so diuine in view,
made for to be the worlds most ornament:
to make the bayte her gazers to embrew,
good shames to be so ill an instrument.
- > it is (such a ) great shame, that, (for) thing so divine in view (and) made for to be the world's most ornament, to make her gazers to imbrue the bait.

But mercy doth with beautie best agree,
as in theyr maker ye them best may see.
-> but mercy does best agree with beauty, as in their maker you may best see them.

to make the bayte her gazers to embrew,

- > to make her gazers to imbrue the bait. 这里诗人把美丽无情的恋人比作垂钓者，把追求者比作鱼儿，把美色比作鱼儿，鱼儿贪吃，却被鱼钩挂得血肉模糊，那么真诚的追求者呢，是否心儿被撕得粉碎？---不知理解正确？

赵福治

有句台词是这么说的。If you ever want something badly, let it go. If it comes back to you, then it's yours forever. If it doesn't, then it was never yours.
