William Shakespeare - Sonnet 63: "Against my love shall be as I am now..."William Shakespeare - Sonnet 63: "Against my love shall be as I am now..."
Work rating: Low


Against my love shall be as I am now  With Time`s injurious hand crushed and o`erworn,  When hours have drained his blood and filled his brow  With lines and wrinkles, when his youthful morn  Hath travelled on to age`s steepy night,  And all those beauties whereof now he`s king  Are vanishing, or vanished out of sight,  Stealing away the treasure of his spring:    For such a time do I now fortify  Against confounding age`s cruel knife,  That he shall never cut from memory  My sweet love`s beauty, though my lover`s life.    His beauty shall in these black lines be seen,    And they shall live, and he in them still green.
