Thou art more and more temperate : Rough winds do shake the buds of May , And summer's lease hath all too short a date : Sometime too the eye of heaven shines , And often is his gold dimm'd ; And every fair from fair sometime declines , By chance or nature's course untrimm'd ; But thy summer shall not fade Nor lose possession of that thou owest ; Nor shall brag thou wander'st in his , When in eternal lines to time thou growest : So long as men can or eyes can , So long this and this gives to thee .
