Let Me Not To The Marriage Of True Minds...: Seamus Breathnach : Sonnet 116 : Shakespeare 2

Shakespeare Sonnet 116 :
'Let Me Not To The Marriage Of True Minds...'

Let me not to the marriage of true minds
Admit impediments; love is not love

Which alters when it alteration finds,

Or bends with the remover to remove:

O, no, it is an ever-fixèd mark,

That looks on tempests and is never shaken;

It is the star to every wand'ring bark,
Whose worth's unknown, although his heighth be taken.

Love's not Time's fool, though rosy lips and cheeks

Within his bending sickle's compass come;

Love alters not with his brief hours and weeks,

But bears it out even to the edge of doom.


If this be error and upon me proved,

I never writ, nor no man ever loved.
