SONNET 29
By William Shakespeare
When, in disgrace with fortune and men’s eyes,
I alone beweep my outcast state
And trouble heaven with my bootless cries
And look upon myself and curse my fate
Wishing me like to one more rich in hope,
Featured like him, like him with friends possess’d,
Desiring this man’s art and that man’s scope,
With what I most enjoy contented least;
Yet in these thought myself most despising,
Haply I think on thee, and then my state,
Like to the lark at break of day arising
From sullen earth, sings hymns at heaven’s gate;
For they sweet love remember’d such wealth brings
That then I scorn to change my state with kings.
