9 out of 154:

• 6. Then let not winter's ragged hand deface
• 18. Shall I compare thee to a summer's day?
• 34. Why did'st thou promise such a beauteous day
• 60. Like as the waves make towards the pebbled shore
• 61. Is it thy will thy image should keep open
• 96. Some say, thy fault is youth, some wantonness
• 97. How like a winter hath my absence been
• 123. No, Time, thou shalt not boast that I do change
• 146. Poor soul the centre of my sinful earth

It either endures, or it does not endure. Now, I must consider this sentence.
Is it honourable, when one endures the torpedoes and phasers of agressive fate?
Or, when one obtains weapons to fight a seeming ocean of troubles,
And when, by fighting, one finishes them? One dies. One sleeps. One merely sleeps.
And when one sleeps, its is believed that one can finish the pain of the heart
And the thousand revolts which one's body must succeed to.
We are certainly willing to initiate this way to finish life.
One dies. One sleeps. When one sleeps, perhaps one dreams. Well, this situation seems to be the obstacle!
What we can soon dream of, while sleeping in death,
Having thrown away from our shoulders the cargo of the mortal ---
When we consider that, we must retreat. We must endure disasters,
Because this idea makes us endure them. It lengthens the life of the disasters.
