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