This sonnet was very interesting to me because of the overall meaning that I took from it. The entire time, the speaker is talking about how the young boy is better and more lovely than most of the items beautiful men and women are compared to. He also states that everything good must come to an end, but the poem will always live on. This again just shows how the speaker is trying to convince the young man to have children so he can continue his beauty, even though he will die. This is possible because his beauty will live on through the children he has. I also noticed in this sonnet the original spelling of some words and the modified version. For example, the word in the modified version of this sonnet is spelled, "summer," but in the original sonnet the word is spelled, "Sommers." This could just be a mispelling of the modified version or this could have a deeper meaning to it. I think that it has a deeper meaning, but it's hard to figure out what thaty meaning really is.
