That millions of strange shadows on you tend?
Since every one hath, every one, one shade,
And you, but one, can every shadow lend.
Describe Adonis, and the counterfeit
Is poorly imitated after you;
On Helen's cheek all art of beauty set,
And you in Grecian tires are painted new:
Speak of the spring and foison of the year;
The one doth shadow of your beauty show,
The other as your bounty doth appear;
And you in every blessed shape we know.
In all external grace you have some part,
But you like none, none you, for constant heart.
你的本質(zhì)是什么,用什么造成,
使得萬千個(gè)倩影都追隨著你?
每人都只有一個(gè),每人,一個(gè)影;
你一人,卻能幻作千萬個(gè)影子。
試為阿都尼寫生,他的畫像
不過是模仿你的拙劣的贗品;
盡量把美容術(shù)施在海倫頰上,
便是你披上希臘妝的新的真身。
一提起春的明媚和秋的豐饒,
一個(gè)把你的綽約的倩影顯示,
另一個(gè)卻是你的慷慨的寫照;
一切天生的俊秀都蘊(yùn)含著你。
一切外界的嫵媚都有你的份,
但誰都沒有你那顆堅(jiān)貞的心。
