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