		<description>During the great plague,the theatres were closed in London.Shakespeare started writing sonnets for others in return for money.Had he written for the sake of poetry,the story would have been different,and the greatness you have been looking for would have been there.Still,his greatness lies in the fact that there was no rival at that time.Bless you.RajaSir.http://www.raja-students.blogspot.com http://www.raja-books.blogspot.com&lt;br&gt;&lt;b&gt;References : &lt;/b&gt;&lt;br&gt;</description>

		<description>Sonnet 18

Shall I compare thee to a summer&#039;s day?
Thou art more lovely and more temperate:
Rough winds do shake the darling buds of May,
And summer&#039;s lease hath all too short a date:
Sometime too hot the eye of heaven shines,
And often is his gold complexion dimm&#039;d;
And every fair from fair sometime declines,
By chance or nature&#039;s changing course untrimm&#039;d;
But thy eternal summer shall not fade
Nor lose possession of that fair thou owest;
Nor shall Death brag thou wander&#039;st in his shade,
When in eternal lines to time thou growest:
So long as men can breathe or eyes can see,
So long lives this and this gives life to thee.


Its eternal love for a withering beauty against all obstacles of Nature(e.g. Death, time etc.) since you believe that shs&#039;s more beautiful than Nature(e.g. summer)&lt;br&gt;&lt;b&gt;References : &lt;/b&gt;&lt;br&gt;</description>
