How shall I compare thee?
To a flower, to a summers day,

















Thee smells sweeter, and thee has more light,
Than a flower, or a summers day,
How shall I compare thee?
To a diamond, to a waterfall,
Thee shines much more, thee has a greater rush,
Than a diamond, or a waterfall,
How shall I compare thee?
Help me count the ways,
The ways I admire you are countless,
How shall I compare thee?
To a tree, to a sonnet
Thee gives much more life, and thee has better time,
Than a tree or a sonnet,
How shall I compare thee?
When I can linger on this subject for so long,
How shall I compare thee to a heart, to adoration?
Thee loves much more, thee is more affectionate,
Than a heart or to adoration.
