In this sonnet, “Sonnet 130”, William Shakespeare talks about a love one, who he compares to things that are suppose to be beautiful. His comparison gives the reader a good idea on what his lover looks like. Her eyes are “nothing like the sun”, her lips are less coral; compared to white snow, breast are dun-colored, and her hairs are like black wires on her head. He is stating in these lines that his lover’s eyes, lips, or breast are no comparison to the beautiful things, such as the sunshine rays of the sun, the redness of coral, and the whiteness of snow.
