XVIII.br /br /Shall I compare thee to a summer's day?br /Thou art more lovely and more temperate:br /Rough winds do shake the darling buds of May,br /And summer's lease hath all too short a date:br /Sometime too hot the eye of heaven shines,br /And often is his gold complexion dimm'd;br /And every fair from fair sometime declines,br /By chance or nature's changing course untrimm'd;br /But thy eternal summer shall not fadebr /Nor lose possession of that fair thou owest;br /Nor shall Death brag thou wander'st in his shade,br /When in eternal lines to time thou growest:br /So long as men can breathe or eyes can see,br /So long lives this and this gives life to thee.
