Shall I compare thee to a summer’s day?
\nThou art more lovely and more temperate.
\nRough winds do shake the darling buds of May,
\nAnd summer’s lease hath all too short a date.
\nSometime too hot the eye of heaven shines,
\nAnd often is his gold complexion dimm’d;
\nAnd every fair from fair some time declines,
\nBy chance, or nature’s changing course, untrimm’d;
\nBut thy eternal summer shall not fade
\nNor lose possession of that fair thou ow\u2019st;
\nNor shall Death brag thou wand’rest in his shade,
\nWhen in eternal lines to time thou grow’st:
\nSo long as men can breathe or eyes can see,
\nSo long lives this, and this gives life to thee.<\/em><\/p>\n

\nWilliam Shakespeare’s birthplace<\/p>\n

<\/a>
\nWilliam Shakespeare’s home in the evening light<\/p>\n
