Sonnet #54
O how much more doth beauty beauteous Cm,
By th@ sweet ornament which truth doth give!
d rose looks fair, bt fairer we it deem
4 th@ sweet odour, which doth in it live:
d canker blooms hv full as deep a dye,
As d perfumed tincture of d roses,
Hang on such thorns, & play as wantonly,
When summerz breath thr masked buds discloses:
bt 4 thr virtue only is thr show,
They live unwooed, & unrespected fade,
Die 2 themselves. Sweet roses do nt so,
Of thr sweet deaths, R sweetest odours made:
& so of U, beauteous & luvly Uth,
When th@ shl vade, by verse distills Ur truth.
