Le Sonnet 26 est l'un des 154 sonnets écrits par le dramaturge et poète William Shakespeare.

Texte original Texte et typographie originale : LOrd of my loue,to whome in vaſſalage Thy merrit hath my dutie ſtrongly knit; To thee I ſend this written ambaſſage To witneſſe duty, not to ſhew my wit. Duty ſo great, which wit ſo poore as mine May make ſeeme bare,in wanting words to ſhew it; But that I hope ſome good conceipt of thine In thy ſoules thought( all naked ) will beſtow it: Til whatſoeuer ſtar that guides my mouing, Points on me gratiouſly with faire aſpect, And puts apparrell on my tottered louing, To ſhow me worthy of their ſweet reſpect, Then may I dare to boaſt how I doe loue thee, Til then,not ſhow my head where thou maiſt proue me.
