O! how much more doth beauty beauteous seem
By that sweet ornament which truth doth give.
The rose looks fair, but fairer we it deem
For that sweet odour, which doth in it live.
Sonnet 54

Not marble, nor the gilded monuments
Of princes, shall outlive this powerful rhyme.
Sonnet 55

So true a fool is love, that in your will,
Though you do anything, he thinks no ill.
Sonnet 57

Like as the waves make towards the pebbled shore,
So do our minutes hasten to their end.
Sonnet 60

Time doth transfix the flourish set on youth
And delves the parallels in beauty's brow.
Sonnet 60

Since brass, nor stone, nor earth, nor boundless sea,
But sad mortality o'ersways their power,
How with this rage shall beauty hold a plea,
Whose action is no stronger than a flower?
Sonnet 65

No longer mourn for me when I am dead
Than you shall hear the surly sullen bell
Give warning to the world that I am fled
From this vile world with vilest worms to dwell.
Sonnet 71

That time of year thou may'st in me behold,
When yellow leaves, or none, or few, do hang
Upon those boughs which shake against the cold,-
Bare ruined choirs, where late the sweet birds sang.
Sonnet 73

So all my best is dressing old words new,
Spending again what is already spent.
Sonnet 76

Time's thievish progress to eternity.
Sonnet 77
