Let Me Not to the Marriage of True Minds Summary 

  • Love that alters when it meets with alteration or change when partner changes aren't defined as love.
  • True love is similar to a fixed beacon that is not even shaken by tempests. It is just like the Northstar that guides every voyaging ship.
  • Moreover, its altitude can be known but knowing its true value is impossible. 
  • Though time can bring changes in rosy lips and cheeks of beloved but can never befool love.
  • Love can never decline with advancement in time but rather continues until they meet death. 
  • The sonneteer ends by saying, if his thought regarding love is proved wrong, he will leave composing poems with a thought of no man ever loved truly.
