William Shakespeare
(15641616).
The Oxford Shakespeare: Poems.
1914.
Sonnet CXXII.
Thy gift, thy tables, are within my brain
T
HY
gift, thy tables, are within my brain
Full characterd with lasting memory,
Which shall above that idle rank remain,
Beyond all date, even to eternity:
Or, at the least, so long as brain and heart
5
Have faculty by nature to subsist;
Till each to razd oblivion yield his part
Of thee, thy record never can be missd.
That poor retention could not so much hold,
Nor need I tallies thy dear love to score;
10
Therefore to give them from me was I bold,
To trust those tables that receive thee more:
To keep an adjunct to remember thee
Were to import forgetfulness in me.
