Answer:
The poet returns to praise of his beloved, a praise more than slightly tinged by the overarching metaphor, which likens his behaviour to the paranoic and extreme behaviour of a miser. Either he sees his beloved all the time, and dotes on his company, or else he is all too aware of his absence. Nothing seems to satisfy him, and between the two extremes of satiety and starvation he finds no middle way. Thus the joyousness of the opening of the sonnet, in which the beloved is as the gentle rain which falleth, is changed into the crooked freneticism of passion and unquenchable desire, from which, even if he should wish it, there seems to be no immediate escape.
