Part of the “Fair Youth” sequence of Shakespearean sonnets, No. 47 takes up and builds on the themes covered in Sonnet No. 46, in which the Bard’s “… eye and heart are at a mortal war…”. This sonnet describes a truce between eye and heart, after the “war” has ended.
Sonnet 47 in the 1609 Quarto.
S...
Betwixt mine eye and heart a league is took,
And each doth good turns now unto the other:
When that mine eye is famish'd for a look,
Or heart in love with sighs himself doth smother,
With my love's picture then my eye doth feast,
And to the painted banquet bids my heart;
Another time mine eye is my heart's guest,
And in his thoughts of love doth share a part:
So, either by thy picture or my love,
Thy self away, art present still with me;
For thou not farther than my thoughts canst move,
And I am still with them, and they with thee;
Or, if they sleep, thy picture in my sight
Awakes my heart, to heart's and eyes' delight.
Sonnet 47 was written by William Shakespeare.
William Shakespeare released Sonnet 47 on Thu Jan 01 1609.
