"Shall
I compare thee to a summer's day?
Thou art more lovely and more temperate:
Rough winds do shake the darling buds of May,
And summer's lease hath all too short a date".
~William
Shakespeare (15641616)
Sonnet 18 (before 1598)
"Eternal
summer gilds them yet,
But all, except their sun, is set".
~George
Noel Gordon, Lord Byron (17881824)
Don Juan (18191824)
"Bright was the summer's noon when quickening steps
Followed each other till a dreary moor
Was crossed, a bare ridge clomb, upon whose top
Standing alone, as from a rampart's edge,
I overlooked the bed of Windermere,
Like a vast river, stretching in the sun".
~William
Wordsworth (17701850)
