When I do count the clock that tells the time,
And see the brave day sunk in hideous night;
当我数着壁上报时的自鸣钟， 见明媚的白昼坠入狰狞的夜，
.

When I behold the violet past prime,
And sable curls all silver'd o'er with white
当我凝望着紫罗兰老了春容， 青丝的卷发遍洒着皑皑白雪；
.
16
When lofty trees I see barren of leaves,
Which erst from heat did canopy the herd,
当我看见参天的树枝叶尽脱， 它不久前曾荫蔽喘息的牛羊；

And summer's green, all girded up in sheaves,
Born on the bier with white and bristly beard;

• 十四行诗是源于意大利民间 的一种抒情短诗
• 文艺复兴初期时盛行于整个欧洲
And die as fast as they see others grow;
既然美和芳菲都把自己抛弃， 眼看着别人生长自己却枯萎；

And nothing 'gainst Time's scythe can make defence
Save breed, to brave him when he takes thee hence.

. The consonant sound [K] repeated in the words "count" and "clock" suggests the unstoppable ticking of the clock’ measuring out man's life span with an impersonal but inexorable regularity, and thus deepens the fear of the addressee to the passage of time and to the loss of his beauty and life. The change of color in nature is another way to illustrate the time passing and implies the cruelty of time.
夏天的青翠一束一束地就缚， 带着坚挺的白须被舁上殓床；

Then of thy beauty do I question make,
That thou among the wastes of time must go,
于是我不禁为你的朱颜焦虑： 终有天你要加入时光的废堆，

In the first two quatrains, the speaker presents various images to illustrate the devastating effects of time. Time is passing so quickly and no one can stop it. In front of time, everything will unavoidably decay and lose its brilliance at last. This sense of time passing is reinforced by the poet through the use of alliteration in the first line of the sonnet
• 结构严谨，分为上下两部分

• 莎士比亚的十四行诗的结构却更严谨——
他将十四个诗行分为两部分：
• 第一部分为三个四行, • 第二部分为两行，每行十个音节，
韵脚为：abab,cdcd,efef,gg

诗的结构越严谨就越难抒情， 而莎士比亚的十四行诗却毫不拘谨，自由奔放， 正如他的剧作天马行空， 其诗歌的语言也富于想象，感情充沛。
没什么抵挡得住时光的毒手 ， 除了生育，当他来要把你拘走。
