Sonnet : Is it for fear to wet a widow’s eye ------------- BY WILLIAM SHAKESPEARE Is it for fear to wet a widow’s eye, That thou consum’st thy self in single life?

Sonnet 71: Th'expense of spirit in a waste of shame ------------- BY WILLIAM SHAKESPEARE No longer mourn for me when I am dead Than you shall hear the surly sullen bell Give warning to the world that I am fled From this vile world with vilest worms to dwell; Nay, if you read this line, remember not the hand that writ it; for I love you so, That I in your Sweet thoughts would be forgot, If thinking on me then should make you woe. O, if (I say...    less
