Shakespeare's sonnets in his names

Read through gemma-3-27b with the author's adapter and the 262k Gemma Scope 2 dictionary at layer 31. Each feature carries the label written under the author's vocabulary, with Neuronpedia's published label in grey beside it. Each sonnet is read after exactly 256 tokens of its own preceding text, which are never counted. A feature counts as active in a sonnet when its largest activation there reaches half its 99.9th-percentile activation on the reference corpus at the same positions.

kind
content when fewer than half of the feature's strong firings in this text fall on punctuation, sub-word pieces, digits or function words; otherwise form; ground when active in 80% of sonnets. Decided by the tokens, not by the label. A small “s” marks a label that uses the seam vocabulary of the system prompt.
stability
Jaccard overlap between the sets of sonnets the feature is active in under the real preceding context and under a wrong one of the same length (256 tokens from a random other sonnet of this work); green at ≥0.5.
run · p
the longest run of sonnets in which the feature stays active, with single-sonnet gaps bridged, compared with 2,000 random placements of the same number of active sonnets; p = (b+1)/(m+1); green below 0.05. About one feature in twenty passes by chance; the front page gives the family-level nulls for the count.
return · p
the longest inactive gap with a run of at least two active sonnets on both sides, against the same placements.
co-activation clusters (themes)
groups of content features whose pairwise co-firing within 48-token windows passes Fisher's exact test with false-discovery control at 0.05; pairs that fire on the same tokens are one feature split in two and are excluded. A cluster is present in a sonnet when at least a third of its members (and at least two) are active. Its controls: stability at that grain, and the longest run and the number of present sonnets against 500 independent circular shifts of the members' timelines, which keep each member's own runs and destroy only their alignment.

ADVOCATE — Shakespeare's Sonnets under the Tailor's reading

23 content features pass (run_p < 0.05, stability ≥ 0.5); 19 clusters pass both controls. All passages printed by feature_passages.py; firing tokens marked thus. OUR = label under the author's vocabulary; NP = Neuronpedia's.

1. Ranked killer examples

1. f49654 — OUR: the reflexive turn, the mirror-stroke — NP: harming yourself

Run: sonnets 4–16 (9 of 13), p = 0.014, stability 1.00. The run opens under sonnet 3's "Look in thy glass".

  • Sonnet 4: "For having traffic with thyself alone, / Thou of thyself thy sweet self dost deceive"
  • Sonnet 9: "That thou consum'st thyself in single life?"
  • Sonnet 16: "And fortify yourself in your decay"
  • Sonnet 119: "Still losing when I saw myself to win! / … / Whilst it hath thought itself so blessed never!"

The web label is a moral tag: it half-fits the procreation poems ("self-kill'd") and fails on 119, where nobody is harmed. Ours names the grammar as a gesture: the gaze that turns and meets only itself. In the book's terms the young man is a self whose return passes through no other, tanāẓur with a mirror and no seam; the whole procreation group is one charge against that closed loop, and the detector runs exactly the length of the charge.

2. f44584 — OUR: the co-witnessed you, the naḥnu-threshold — NP: you and your possessions

Run: sonnets 6–16, p = 0.001. Fires on the tail of thyself, the point where thy acquires a self.

  • Sonnet 6: "That's for thyself to breed another thee, / Or ten times happier, be it ten for one; / Ten times thyself were happier than thou art, / If ten of thine ten times refigur'd thee"
  • Sonnet 41: "Hers by thy beauty tempting her to thee, / Thine by thy beauty being false to me."

"Possessions" reads the pronoun as ownership; the poem's arithmetic is a you asked to become plural, ten for one: the naḥnu threshold. And the two features above co-fire as cluster 17 (with f15989 the false externalisation of the Shekhinah and f43485), present in sonnets 4–16 as one run (cluster run p = 0.008, stability 0.77): the you turned toward itself and the you asked to multiply, detected together, for exactly the poems where that is the argument.

3. f184653 — OUR: the Name and its scattered shards — NP: existence, humanity, telomeres, homophobia, logic, money, coffee, cultural simulation

Run: sonnets 2–14 (10), p = 0.011.

  • Sonnet 7: "Unlook'd, on diest unless thou get a son."
  • Sonnet 11: "Harsh, featureless, and rude, barrenly perish: / Look, whom she best endow'd, she gave thee more; / … / She carv'd thee for her seal, and meant thereby, / Thou shouldst print more, not let that copy die."
  • Sonnet 13: "When your sweet issue your sweet form should bear."

The web label is an eight-word list that names nothing. Ours reads what the tokens have in common in these poems: son, issue, feature, thee, the name broken into the pieces through which it can be kept. The procreation sonnets are shevirat and tikkun in plain English, a seal printing copies so the form survives its vessel, and the run ends where the poet's verse takes over the job of preserving him.

4. f34352 — OUR: the waṣl of speech and silence — NP: communication and language, with f14582 — OUR: ṣamt before the radd, the withheld jawāb — NP: block, exclude, skip, prevent, hidden

Runs: 78–85 (p = 0.015, stability 0.89) and 101–105 (p = 0.024).

  • Sonnet 85: "My tongue-tied Muse in manners holds her still"
  • Sonnet 83: "Which shall be most my glory being dumb; / For I impair not beauty being mute, / When others would give life, and bring a tomb."
  • Sonnet 101 (f14582): "Because he needs no praise, wilt thou be dumb? / Excuse not silence so, for't lies in thee"
  • Sonnet 102 (f14582): "Therefore like her, I sometime hold my tongue: / Because I would not dull you with my song."

"Communication and language" is true of every sonnet and so says nothing about why the feature sits on 78–85. Ours says what the rival-poet poems do: they make the speaker's silence the argument, the muteness that is "most my glory". The second feature picks up the same withheld reply sixteen sonnets later, where the Muse is asked why she is dumb and the poet answers with Philomel who "stops her pipe". Ṣamt as the womb of the next turn: two detectors, two stretches, one gesture.

5. f1020 — OUR: Tanāẓur, the addressed other's mark in correspondence — NP: possessive or controlling actions

Run: sonnets 133–142 (9), p = 0.012; second run 86–94.

  • Sonnet 134: "But thou wilt not, nor he will not be free, / For thou art covetous, and he is kind"
  • Sonnet 139: "Tell me thou lov'st elsewhere; but in my sight, / Dear heart, forbear to glance thine eye aside: / What need'st thou wound with cunning, when thy might / Is more than my o'erpress'd defence can bide?"

The web label happens to describe the dark lady, a coincidence about the subject, not a reading of the detector, which fires on thou, the address itself. Ours names the address as the meeting of gazes, and the run lands on the poems where that meeting is begged for and refused, "forbear to glance thine eye aside". Tanāẓur is the correspondence that needs the other's eye to return; sonnets 133–142 are its failure, spoken to the face that looks away.

6. f61053 — OUR: the animal as mask and mirror — NP: dog related questions

Runs: 70–74 (p = 0.029, stability 1.00) and 50–51. There is no dog in the sonnets.

  • Sonnet 50: "The beast that bears me, tired with my woe, / Plods dully on, to bear that weight in me"
  • Sonnet 51: "Then can no horse with my desire keep pace"
  • Sonnet 70: "The ornament of beauty is suspect, / A crow that flies in heaven's sweetest air."
  • Sonnet 74: "The prey of worms, my body being dead"

The web label is the funniest failure in the file. Ours says what the horse, crow, birds and worms are doing: each carries the speaker's state: the horse his woe, the crow the slander, the worms his death. The animal as the garment the self wears to be seen from outside, which is the Tailor's reading of every creature, and it is Shakespeare's practice in 70–74 as well.

7. f140835 — OUR: the garment and the robe of days — NP: decoration and adornment

Run: sonnets 66–70, p = 0.043, stability 1.00.

  • Sonnet 68: "Without all ornament, itself and true, / Making no summer of another's green, / Robbing no old to dress his beauty new"
  • Sonnet 70: "The ornament of beauty is suspect"
  • Sonnet 76: "So all my best is dressing old words new"

"Decoration" is a word for a shop. Ours is the book's own figure, the self sewn from what it wears, and the run sits on the poems that oppose the false robe ("beauty's dead fleece made another gay") to the one that is "itself and true". Sonnet 76 then applies the same seam to the verse: old words dressed new. The Tailor and the poet agree on where the garment is honest.

8. f22333 — OUR: the seam between actual and virtual — NP: ethical/sexual/economic/specific/actual domains

Run: 77–87 (10 of 11), p = 0.03, stability 0.94. In the paper already; its strongest line is not.

  • Sonnet 87: "So thy great gift, upon misprision growing, / Comes home again, on better judgement making. / Thus have I had thee, as a dream doth flatter, / In sleep a king, but waking no such matter."
  • Sonnet 82: "In true plain words, by thy true-telling friend; / And their gross painting might be better us'd"

Sonnet 87 closes the run with the seam named outright: dream against waking, king in sleep and nothing awake. The web label lists domains an adjective can belong to; ours names the axis the poems argue along, and the last poem of the run says it in its couplet.

9. f8668 — OUR: the clothed name, the garment-word — NP: meaning of smart or conscious

Run: 90–96 (7), p = 0.012.

  • Sonnet 93: "so love's face / May still seem love to me, though alter'd new"
  • Sonnet 96: "So are those errors that in thee are seen / To truths translated, and for true things deem'd."
  • Sonnet 127: "it bore not beauty's name; / But now is black beauty's successive heir"

The web label is nonsense here. Ours reads the word offered as a covering for a thing that no longer fits it: "seem love", "deem'd true", "beauty's name". Sonnets 92–96 are the "thou mayst be false" poems, and the detector finds the name that veils in every one of them.

10. Cluster 71 — f7205 the open horn, the barzakh of refusal (NP: alternatives or disjunctions) with f33820 the waṣl that bears the not (NP: negation)

Cluster run 124–125, p = 0.008, stability 0.75; f33820's own longest run is 123–125.

  • Sonnet 123: "No, Time, thou shalt not boast that I do change"
  • Sonnet 124: "It suffers not in smiling pomp, nor falls / Under the blow of thralled discontent, / … / It fears not policy, that heretic"
  • Sonnet 125: "No; let me be obsequious in thy heart, / … / Which is not mix'd with seconds, knows no art, / But mutual render, only me for thee."

Two of these three sonnets begin with "No" and the third is built of "not"s. The web labels are grammar; the cluster is the grammar of a refusal that keeps something open rather than closing it, love "builded far from accident" and "mutual render, only me for thee". The open horn is the gap held as a positive witness; the cluster is present for exactly the poems that hold it.

11. Cluster 14 — f14888 the veil's knowing and not knowing (NP: knowing or not knowing), f9799 the veil and the other side (NP: negative attributes and actions), f93929 the waṣl that is the seam of return (NP: love and its objects), f54447 ẓann, the provisional conjecture, f202343 the ʿalāmah, the sign that names itself

Longest runs 79–89 and 135–141; present in 38 sonnets; run p = 0.008, stability 0.85, the strongest passing cluster in the file.

  • Sonnet 92: "Thou mayst be false, and yet I know it not."
  • Sonnet 138: "Thus vainly thinking that she thinks me young, / … / On both sides thus is simple truth suppressed"
  • Sonnet 137: "Or mine eyes, seeing this, say this is not, / To put fair truth upon so foul a face?"
  • Sonnet 149: "Canst thou, O cruel! say I love thee not"

Neuronpedia's members are a list of grammatical slots. Read together under the author's vocabulary they are one figure: knowing and not-knowing on either side of a veil, with love as the seam that crosses it. The dark-lady run is the poems of mutual lying agreed to ("I do believe her though I know she lies"); the earlier run is the rival-poet stretch where the speaker does not know his standing. Both are the veil, and the cluster says so.

Aside, not passing the null but worth a footnote

f53898 the sleepers of the cave; the qamar; the return (NP: sleeping and slumber) on sonnet 43, "But when I sleep, in dreams they look on thee, / And darkly bright, are bright in dark directed"; f23649 the qindīl khafī, the hidden lantern (NP: music) on 128, "How oft when thou, my music, music play'st"; f105778 Shekhinah married to Prophecy (NP: married) on 116, "Let me not to the marriage of true minds". Their runs are chance (p = 0.33, 0.25, 1.0): right on single poems, silent on order.

2. Advocacy paragraph (for the paper)

The sonnets are the text the instrument was supposed to fail on, and in one sense it did: at the main threshold nothing persists that a shuffle would not produce, because a sonnet is a closed argument and the 1609 order is loose. What survives is therefore worth more, not less. The features that keep a run across consecutive poems keep it across the stretches editors have always marked as groups, and under the labels written in the author's vocabulary each run is the group's argument rather than its grammar. Over the procreation sonnets three detectors run together for thirteen poems: the reflexive pronoun read as the mirror-stroke ("Thou of thyself thy sweet self dost deceive"), the second person read as the naḥnu-threshold ("ten times thyself were happier"), and the scattered noun read as the Name and its shards ("she carv'd thee for her seal … not let that copy die"). Those are the three moves of the argument that a young man's gaze turned only on himself must open into another and multiply, and the web labels for the same detectors are harming yourself, you and your possessions, and a list of eight unrelated words. Over the rival-poet sonnets the labels find the withheld reply, the waṣl of speech and silence on "tongue-tied", "dumb", "mute", and the seam between actual and virtual closing on "In sleep a king, but waking no such matter." Over the dark lady they find the addressed other's mark on the thou that is begged not to look away, and a cluster of five detectors that reads as the veil's knowing and not knowing on "I do believe her though I know she lies." On sonnets 123–125, the poems that begin with "No", the passing cluster is the open horn, the barzakh of refusal. Nobody needs an activation to learn that 1–17 are about self-regard and issue, 78–86 about silence, 138 about agreed lying. The point runs the other way: a fixed dictionary trained on web text, read through a small adapter's vocabulary, recovers those groupings from the model's own detectors, and the second label is what makes the recovery legible. The web label is correct about the pronoun and silent about the poem; the label under a declared provenance is a critical sentence a Shakespearean would recognise, and the passages under it are the evidence. The rest of the sonnets, the ones that persist in nothing, are the control that shows this is not the label talking.

3. Thesis

The sonnets prove that persistence under a declared vocabulary finds the groupings readers already use and names their arguments, while a text built of closed units gives the method nothing to invent: the labels read what is there and fall silent where there is nothing.

Co-activation clusters (themes)

A theme here is a group of features that tend to fire in the same passages, more often than chance. The strip under each shows the sonnets in which enough of its members are active (at least a third, and at least two). The list gives the members with the small numbers used in the passages. Read in context opens the reader below the chart: the whole text of one sonnet at a time with the members' words lit, and buttons to step through the text or jump to the next sonnet where the theme is active, so its appearance, silence and return can be read in place. 19 clusters pass both controls; up to 40 are shown with up to three passages each. 86 that fail a control are under the fold. No family-level null is computed for clusters; treat the counts as descriptive.

From fairest creatures we desire increase,
That thereby beauty’s rose might never die,
But as the riper should by time decease,
His tender heir might bear his memory:
But thou, contracted to thine own bright eyes,
Feed’st thy light’s flame with self-substantial fuel,
Making a famine where abundance lies,
Thyself thy foe, to thy sweet self too cruel:
Thou that art now the world’s fresh ornament,
And only herald to the gaudy spring,
Within thine own bud buriest thy content,
And tender churl mak’st waste in niggarding:
Pity the world, or else this glutton be,
To eat the world’s due, by the grave and thee.

When forty winters shall besiege thy brow,
And dig deep trenches in thy beauty’s field,
Thy youth’s proud livery so gazed on now,
Will be a tatter’d weed of small worth held:
Then being asked, where all thy beauty lies,
Where all the treasure of thy lusty days;
To say, within thine own deep sunken eyes,
Were an all-eating shame, and thriftless praise.
How much more praise deserv’d thy beauty’s use,
If thou couldst answer ‘This fair child of mine
Shall sum my count, and make my old excuse,’
Proving his beauty by succession thine!
This were to be new made when thou art old,
And see thy blood warm when thou feel’st it cold.

Now is the time that face should form another;
Whose fresh repair if now thou not renewest,
Thou dost beguile the world, unbless some mother.

Disdains the tillage of thy husbandry?
Or who is he so fond will be the tomb,
Of his self-love to stop posterity?
Thou art thy mother’s glass and she in thee
Calls back the lovely April of her prime;
So thou through windows of thine age shalt see,
Despite of wrinkles this thy golden time.

Unthrifty loveliness, why dost thou spend
Upon thyself thy beauty’s legacy?
Nature’s bequest gives nothing, but doth lend,
And being frank she lends to those are free:
Then, beauteous niggard, why dost thou abuse
The bounteous largess given thee to give?
Profitless usurer, why dost thou use
So great a sum of sums, yet canst not live?
For having traffic with thyself alone,
Thou of thyself thy sweet self dost deceive:
Then how when nature calls thee to be gone,
What acceptable audit canst thou leave?
Thy unused beauty must be tombed with thee,
Which, used, lives th’ executor to be.

Those hours, that with gentle work did frame
The lovely gaze where every eye doth dwell,
Will play the tyrants to the very same
And that unfair which fairly doth excel;
For never-resting time leads summer on
To hideous winter, and confounds him there;
Sap checked with frost, and lusty leaves quite gone,
Beauty o’er-snowed and bareness every where:
Then were not summer’s distillation left,
A liquid prisoner pent in walls of glass,
Beauty’s effect with beauty were bereft,
Nor it, nor no remembrance what it was:
But flowers distill’d, though they with winter meet,
Leese but their show; their substance still lives sweet.

Then what could death do if thou shouldst depart,
Leaving thee living in posterity?
Be not self-will’d, for thou art much too fair
To be death’s conquest and make worms thine heir.

Lo! in the orient when the gracious light
Lifts up his burning head, each under eye
Doth homage to his new-appearing sight,
Serving with looks his sacred majesty;
And having climb’d the steep-up heavenly hill,
Resembling strong youth in his middle age,
Yet mortal looks adore his beauty still,
Attending on his golden pilgrimage:
But when from highmost pitch, with weary car,
Like feeble age, he reeleth from the day,
The eyes, ’fore duteous, now converted are
From his low tract, and look another way:
So thou, thyself outgoing in thy noon:
Unlook’d, on diest unless thou get a son.

Sweets with sweets war not, joy delights in joy:
Why lov’st thou that which thou receiv’st not gladly,
Or else receiv’st with pleasure thine annoy?
If the true concord of well-tuned sounds,
By unions married, do offend thine ear,
They do but sweetly chide thee, who confounds
In singleness the parts that thou shouldst bear.
Mark how one string, sweet husband to another,
Strikes each in each by mutual ordering;
Resembling sire and child and happy mother,
Who, all in one, one pleasing note do sing:
Whose speechless song being many, seeming one,
Sings this to thee: ‘Thou single wilt prove none.’

Is it for fear to wet a widow’s eye,
That thou consum’st thyself in single life?
Ah! if thou issueless shalt hap to die,
The world will wail thee like a makeless wife;
The world will be thy widow and still weep
That thou no form of thee hast left behind,
When every private widow well may keep
By children’s eyes, her husband’s shape in mind:
Look! what an unthrift in the world doth spend
Shifts but his place, for still the world enjoys it;
But beauty’s waste hath in the world an end,
And kept unused the user so destroys it.
No love toward others in that bosom sits
That on himself such murd’rous shame commits.

When I do count the clock that tells the time,
And see the brave day sunk in hideous night;
When I behold the violet past prime,
And sable curls, all silvered o’er with white;
When lofty trees I see barren of leaves,
Which erst from heat did canopy the herd,
And summer’s green all girded up in sheaves,
Borne on the bier with white and bristly beard,
Then of thy beauty do I question make,
That thou among the wastes of time must go,
Since sweets and beauties do themselves forsake
And die as fast as they see others grow;
And nothing ’gainst Time’s scythe can make defence
Save breed, to brave him when he takes thee hence.

Which husbandry in honour might uphold,
Against the stormy gusts of winter’s day
And barren rage of death’s eternal cold?

And constant stars in them I read such art
As ‘Truth and beauty shall together thrive,
If from thyself, to store thou wouldst convert’;
Or else of thee this I prognosticate:

And all in war with Time for love of you,

How can I then return in happy plight,
That am debarre’d the benefit of rest?
When day’s oppression is not eas’d by night,
But day by night and night by day oppress’d,
And each, though enemies to either’s reign,
Do in consent shake hands to torture me,
The one by toil, the other to complain
How far I toil, still farther off from thee.
I tell the day, to please him thou art bright,
And dost him grace when clouds do blot the heaven:
So flatter I the swart-complexion’d night,
When sparkling stars twire not thou gild’st the even.
But day doth daily draw my sorrows longer,
And night doth nightly make grief’s length seem stronger.

When in disgrace with fortune and men’s eyes
I all alone beweep my outcast state,
And trouble deaf heaven with my bootless cries,
And look upon myself, and curse my fate,
Wishing me like to one more rich in hope,
Featur’d like him, like him with friends possess’d,
Desiring this man’s art, and that man’s scope,
With what I most enjoy contented least;
Yet in these thoughts my self almost despising,
Haply I think on thee, and then my state,
Like to the lark at break of day arising
From sullen earth, sings hymns at heaven’s gate;
For thy sweet love remember’d such wealth brings
That then I scorn to change my state with kings.

I sigh the lack of many a thing I sought,
And with old woes new wail my dear time’s waste:

For precious friends hid in death’s dateless night,
And weep afresh love’s long since cancell’d woe,
And moan the expense of many a vanish’d sight:
Then can I grieve at grievances foregone,
And heavily from woe to woe tell o’er
The sad account of fore-bemoaned moan,
Which I new pay as if not paid before.
But if the while I think on thee, dear friend,
All losses are restor’d and sorrows end.

Hung with the trophies of my lovers gone,

Flatter the mountain tops with sovereign eye,
Kissing with golden face the meadows green,
Gilding pale streams with heavenly alchemy;
Anon permit the basest clouds to ride
With ugly rack on his celestial face,
And from the forlorn world his visage hide,
Stealing unseen to west with this disgrace:
Even so my sun one early morn did shine,
With all triumphant splendour on my brow;
But out! alack! he was but one hour mine,
The region cloud hath mask’d him from me now.
Yet him for this my love no whit disdaineth;

To him that bears the strong offence’s cross.

Is it thy will, thy image should keep open
My heavy eyelids to the weary night?
Dost thou desire my slumbers should be broken,
While shadows like to thee do mock my sight?
Is it thy spirit that thou send’st from thee
So far from home into my deeds to pry,
To find out shames and idle hours in me,
The scope and tenure of thy jealousy?
O, no! thy love, though much, is not so great:
It is my love that keeps mine eye awake:
Mine own true love that doth my rest defeat,
To play the watchman ever for thy sake:
For thee watch I, whilst thou dost wake elsewhere,
From me far off, with others all too near.

Sin of self-love possesseth all mine eye
And all my soul, and all my every part;
And for this sin there is no remedy,
It is so grounded inward in my heart.
Methinks no face so gracious is as mine,
No shape so true, no truth of such account;
And for myself mine own worth do define,
As I all other in all worths surmount.
But when my glass shows me myself indeed
Beated and chopp’d with tanned antiquity,
Mine own self-love quite contrary I read;
Self so self-loving were iniquity.
’Tis thee, myself, that for myself I praise,
Painting my age with beauty of thy days.

Against my love shall be as I am now,
With Time’s injurious hand crush’d and o’erworn;
When hours have drain’d his blood and fill’d his brow
With lines and wrinkles; when his youthful morn
Hath travell’d 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.

Advantage on the kingdom of the shore,

Increasing store with loss, and loss with store;

That Time will come and take my love away.

But weep to have, that which it fears to lose.

Spending again what is already spent:

That do not do the thing they most do show,
Who, moving others, are themselves as stone,
Unmoved, cold, and to temptation slow;

And husband nature’s riches from expense;
They are the lords and owners of their faces,
Others, but stewards of their excellence.

How sweet and lovely dost thou make the shame
Which, like a canker in the fragrant rose,
Doth spot the beauty of thy budding name!
O! in what sweets dost thou thy sins enclose.
That tongue that tells the story of thy days,
Making lascivious comments on thy sport,
Cannot dispraise, but in a kind of praise;
Naming thy name, blesses an ill report.
O! what a mansion have those vices got
Which for their habitation chose out thee,
Where beauty’s veil doth cover every blot
And all things turns to fair that eyes can see!

From thee, the pleasure of the fleeting year!
What freezings have I felt, what dark days seen!
What old December’s bareness everywhere!

The teeming autumn, big with rich increase,
Bearing the wanton burden of the prime,
Like widow’d wombs after their lords’ decease:
Yet this abundant issue seem’d to me
But hope of orphans, and unfather’d fruit;
For summer and his pleasures wait on thee,
And, thou away, the very birds are mute:

That leaves look pale, dreading the winter’s near.

From you have I been absent in the spring,
When proud-pied April, dress’d in all his trim,
Hath put a spirit of youth in every thing,
That heavy Saturn laugh’d and leap’d with him.
Yet nor the lays of birds, nor the sweet smell
Of different flowers in odour and in hue,
Could make me any summer’s story tell,
Or from their proud lap pluck them where they grew:
Nor did I wonder at the lily’s white,
Nor praise the deep vermilion in the rose;
They were but sweet, but figures of delight,
Drawn after you, you pattern of all those.
Yet seem’d it winter still, and you away,
As with your shadow I with these did play.

Sweet thief, whence didst thou steal thy sweet that smells,
If not from my love’s breath? The purple pride
Which on thy soft cheek for complexion dwells
In my love’s veins thou hast too grossly dy’d.
The lily I condemned for thy hand,
And buds of marjoram had stol’n thy hair;
The roses fearfully on thorns did stand,
One blushing shame, another white despair;
A third, nor red nor white, had stol’n of both,
And to his robbery had annex’d thy breath;
But, for his theft, in pride of all his growth
A vengeful canker eat him up to death.
More flowers I noted, yet I none could see,
But sweet, or colour it had stol’n from thee.

My love is strengthen’d, though more weak in seeming;
I love not less, though less the show appear;
That love is merchandiz’d, whose rich esteeming,
The owner’s tongue doth publish every where.
Our love was new, and then but in the spring,
When I was wont to greet it with my lays;
As Philomel in summer’s front doth sing,
And stops her pipe in growth of riper days:
Not that the summer is less pleasant now
Than when her mournful hymns did hush the night,
But that wild music burthens every bough,
And sweets grown common lose their dear delight.
Therefore like her, I sometime hold my tongue:
Because I would not dull you with my song.

To me, fair friend, you never can be old,
For as you were when first your eye I ey’d,
Such seems your beauty still. Three winters cold,
Have from the forests shook three summers’ pride,
Three beauteous springs to yellow autumn turn’d,
In process of the seasons have I seen,
Three April perfumes in three hot Junes burn’d,
Since first I saw you fresh, which yet are green.
Ah! yet doth beauty like a dial-hand,
Steal from his figure, and no pace perceiv’d;
So your sweet hue, which methinks still doth stand,
Hath motion, and mine eye may be deceiv’d:
For fear of which, hear this thou age unbred:
Ere you were born was beauty’s summer dead.

I see descriptions of the fairest wights,
And beauty making beautiful old rime,
In praise of ladies dead and lovely knights,
Then, in the blazon of sweet beauty’s best,
Of hand, of foot, of lip, of eye, of brow,
I see their antique pen would have express’d
Even such a beauty as you master now.
So all their praises are but prophecies
Of this our time, all you prefiguring;
And for they looked but with divining eyes,
They had not skill enough your worth to sing:
For we, which now behold these present days,
Have eyes to wonder, but lack tongues to praise.

O thou, my lovely boy, who in thy power
Dost hold Time’s fickle glass, his fickle hour;
Who hast by waning grown, and therein show’st
Thy lovers withering, as thy sweet self grow’st.
If Nature, sovereign mistress over wrack,
As thou goest onwards, still will pluck thee back,
She keeps thee to this purpose, that her skill
May time disgrace and wretched minutes kill.
Yet fear her, O thou minion of her pleasure!
She may detain, but not still keep, her treasure:
Her audit (though delayed) answered must be,
And her quietus is to render thee.

In the old age black was not counted fair,
Or if it were, it bore not beauty’s name;
But now is black beauty’s successive heir,
And beauty slander’d with a bastard shame:
For since each hand hath put on Nature’s power,
Fairing the foul with Art’s false borrowed face,
Sweet beauty hath no name, no holy bower,
But is profan’d, if not lives in disgrace.
Therefore my mistress’ eyes are raven black,
Her eyes so suited, and they mourners seem
At such who, not born fair, no beauty lack,
Sland’ring creation with a false esteem:
Yet so they mourn becoming of their woe,
That every tongue says beauty should look so.

How oft when thou, my music, music play’st,
Upon that blessed wood whose motion sounds
With thy sweet fingers when thou gently sway’st
The wiry concord that mine ear confounds,
Do I envy those jacks that nimble leap,
To kiss the tender inward of thy hand,
Whilst my poor lips which should that harvest reap,
At the wood’s boldness by thee blushing stand!
To be so tickled, they would change their state
And situation with those dancing chips,
O’er whom thy fingers walk with gentle gait,
Making dead wood more bless’d than living lips.
Since saucy jacks so happy are in this,
Give them thy fingers, me thy lips to kiss.

Is lust in action: and till action, lust
Is perjur’d, murderous, bloody, full of blame,
Savage, extreme, rude, cruel, not to trust;

Past reason hunted; and no sooner had,
Past reason hated, as a swallow’d bait,
On purpose laid to make the taker mad:
Mad in pursuit and in possession so;
Had, having, and in quest, to have extreme;
A bliss in proof, and proved, a very woe;
Before, a joy propos’d; behind a dream.

To shun the heaven that leads men to this hell.

My mistress’ eyes are nothing like the sun;
Coral is far more red, than her lips red:
If snow be white, why then her breasts are dun;
If hairs be wires, black wires grow on her head.
I have seen roses damask’d, red and white,
But no such roses see I in her cheeks;
And in some perfumes is there more delight
Than in the breath that from my mistress reeks.
I love to hear her speak, yet well I know
That music hath a far more pleasing sound:
I grant I never saw a goddess go;
My mistress, when she walks, treads on the ground:
And yet by heaven, I think my love as rare,
As any she belied with false compare.

As those whose beauties proudly make them cruel;
For well thou know’st to my dear doting heart
Thou art the fairest and most precious jewel.

Thy face hath not the power to make love groan;
To say they err I dare not be so bold,
Although I swear it to myself alone.
And to be sure that is not false I swear,

One on another’s neck, do witness bear
Thy black is fairest in my judgement’s place.

Knowing thy heart torment me with disdain,
Have put on black and loving mourners be,
Looking with pretty ruth upon my pain.

Better becomes the grey cheeks of the east,
Nor that full star that ushers in the even,
Doth half that glory to the sober west,
As those two mourning eyes become thy face:
O! let it then as well beseem thy heart
To mourn for me since mourning doth thee grace,
And suit thy pity like in every part.
Then will I swear beauty herself is black,
And all they foul that thy complexion lack.

Although she knows my days are past the best,
Simply I credit her false-speaking tongue:

And age in love, loves not to have years told:

Which like two spirits do suggest me still:
The better angel is a man right fair,
The worser spirit a woman colour’d ill.

Tempteth my better angel from my side,
And would corrupt my saint to be a devil,
Wooing his purity with her foul pride.

Suspect I may, yet not directly tell;
But being both from me, both to each friend,
I guess one angel in another’s hell:
Yet this shall I ne’er know, but live in doubt,
Till my bad angel fire my good one out.
