It's I <3 Shakespeare Day!

By decree of Kitsune, it is I <3 Shakespeare Day. Read the words, feel the love, and remember that Shakespeare=Sex. Then go find your favourite Shakespeare for your blog.

From Romeo and Juliet: Romeo on his Juliet

Oh! She doth teach the torhes to burn bright!
It seems she hags upon the cheek of night
like some rich jewel in an Ethiop's ear
Beauty to rich for use, for Earth to dear.
So shows a snowy dove trooping with crows
As yonder lady o'er her fellows shows.
The measure done, I'll watch her place of stand
And, touching her, make blessed my rude hand
Did my heart love till now? forswear it, sight!
For I ne'er saw true beauty till this night."

Happy Valentine's Day, all.

Just randomly...

desperemus - is this a jussive subjunctive which would be translated as let us despair? Comes from despero, -are, -avi, -atum (to despair). If not, do you know what it would be?

Uhm- that looks right. But I can't absolutely confirm it just now..

Also, why did the HTML not work???

I think it's because you didn't put in the end of the speech marks in the link....

Probably because the less than thing you used to make a heart fucked it up...

Success! It was just a speech mark problem, which apparently made the rest of the HTML in the entry invalid...? Strange but true.
