William Shakespeare's "Let me not to the marriage of true minds admit impediment" (Sonnet CXVI)

A Poem Within the Poem

True minds admit love alters when
it alteration finds.
It looks on tempests, shaken, the star

to every worth's unknown.
Love 's Time's fool, rosy lips and cheeks
come with his hours and weeks

to the edge of doom. If this be proved,
I writ, ever loved.
