Transcript of Sonnet xxv

Let those who are in favour with their starsOf public honor and proud titles boast,

William Shakespeare

Whilst I, whom fortune of such triumph bars

Unlook'd for joy in that I honour most.

Great princes' favourites their fair leaves

spread

But as the marigold at the sun's eye,

And in themselves their pride lies buried,

For at a frown they in their glory die.

The painful

warrior

famoused for

fight,

After a

thousand

victories once

foiled,

Is from the

book of

honour

razed quite,

And all the

rest

forgot for

which

he toiled:

Then happy I, that love and am beloved,

Where I may not remove nor be

removed.
