Sonnet

• Shall I compare thee to a summer's day? AThou art more lovely and more temperate: BRough winds do shake the darling buds of May, AAnd summer's lease hath all too short a date: BSometime too hot the eye of heaven shines, CAnd often is his gold complexion dimm'd; DAnd every fair from fair sometime declines, CBy chance, or nature's changing course, untrimm'd; DBut thy eternal summer shall not fade ENor lose possession of that fair thou ow'st; FNor shall Death brag thou wander'st in his shade, EWhen in eternal lines to time thou grow'st; FSo long as men can breathe or eyes can see, GSo long lives this, and this gives life to thee.
