And then black night. That blackness was sublime.
I felt distributed through space and time:
One foot upon a mountaintop. One hand
Under the pebbles of a panting strand,
One ear in Italy, one eye in Spain,
In caves, my blood, and in the stars, my brain.

O could I flow like thee, and make thy stream
My great example, as it is my theme!
Though deep yet clear, though gentle yet not dull;
Strong without rage, without o'erflowing full.作者: xueyanfei 时间: 2012-1-18 20:06
莎翁Sonnet XVIII的结尾：
"So long as men can breathe, or eyes can see,
So long lives this, and this gives life to thee.
Ben Jonson在莎剧第一版提了一首诗纪念莎翁，用的就是英雄双行体，摘上几句：
For silliest ignorance on these may light,
Which when it sounds at best but echoes right;
Or blind affection, which doth ne’er advance
The truth, but gropes, and urges all by chance;
Or crafty malice might pretend this praise,
And think to ruin where it seemed to raise.作者: 酒色财气 时间: 2012-2-22 08:51
