1 Not from the stars do I my judgment pluck; 2 And yet methinks I have astronomy, 3 But not to tell of good or evil luck, 4 Of plagues, of dearths, or seasons' quality; 5 Nor can I fortune to brief minutes tell, 6 'Pointing to each his thunder, rain and wind, 7 Or say with princes if it shall go well, 8 By oft predict that I in heaven find: 9 But from thine eyes my knowledge I derive, 10 And, constant stars, in them I read such art 11 As truth and beauty shall together thrive, 12 If from thyself to store thou wouldst convert; 13 Or else of thee this I prognosticate: 14 Thy end is truth's and beauty's doom and date.
