from fairest creatures we desire increase Explanation: ...That thereby beauty's rose might never die Si tratta del I sonetto HTH -------------------------------------------------- Note added at 18 mins (2007-11-05 21:46:14 GMT) -------------------------------------------------- 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. Thout that are 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. -------------------------------------------------- Note added at 20 mins (2007-11-05 21:48:16 GMT) -------------------------------------------------- Sorry !
