Guest guest Posted November 16, 2000 Report Share Posted November 16, 2000 Can someone, anyone interpret these lines of Shakespeare for me and make them clear. They are so appealing and yet i do not know why they are. Can anyone help... what does " cummer " mean? and " ow'st " Nor lose possession of that fair...? what fair? i did not take Eng. Lit ..! ++++++++++++++++++ But thy eternal cummer shall not fade, Nor lose possession of that fair thou ow'st, Nor shall death brag thou wander'st in his shade, When in eternal lines to time thou grow'st; So long as men can breathe, or eyes can see, So long lives this, and this gives life to thee. William Shakespeare, Sonnets _______________________ Get Your Private, Free E-mail from MSN Hotmail at http://www.hotmail.com.
