Sonnet 116 by William Shakespeare

Looking for a traditional wedding reading for your big day? Here's Sonnet 116 by William Shakespeare...

• "Let me not to the marriage of true minds 
• Admit impediments. Love is not love 
• Which alters when it alteration finds, 
• Or bends with the remover to remove. 
• O no! it is an ever-fixed mark 
• That looks on tempests and is never shaken; 
• It is the star to every wand'ring bark, 
• Whose worth's unknown, although his height be taken. 
• Love's not Time's fool, though rosy lips and cheeks 
• Within his bending sickle's compass come; 
• Love alters not with his brief hours and weeks, 
• But bears it out even to the edge of doom. 
• If this be error and upon me prov'd, 
• I never writ, nor no man ever lov'd."
