Samuel Daniel - Sonnet LV: Let Others Sing
Work rating: Low

Let others sing of Knights and Paladins 
In aged accents and untimely words, 
Paint shadows in imaginary lines 
Which well the reach of their high wits records; 
But I must sing of thee and those fair eyes; 
Authentic shall my verse in time to come, 
When yet th`unborn shall say, "Lo, where she lies 
Whose beauty made him speak that else was dumb." 
These are the Arks, the Trophies I erect 
That fortify thy name against old age, 
And these thy sacred virtues must protect 
Against the dark and Time`s consuming rage. 
Though th`error of my youth they shall discover, 
Suffice they show I liv`d and was thy lover.
