Le Sonnet 94 est l'un des 154 sonnets écrits par le dramaturge et poète William Shakespeare.

Texte original Texte et typographie originale : THey that haue powre to hurt,and will doe none, That doe not do the thing,they moſt do ſhowe, Who mouing others,are themſelues as ſtone, Vnmooued,could,and to temptation ſlow: They rightly do inherrit heauens graces, And husband natures ritches from expence, They are the Lords and owners of their faces, Others,but ſtewards of their excellence: The ſommers flowre is to the ſommer ſweet, Though to it ſelfe,it onely liue and die, But if that flowre with baſe infection meete, The baſeft weed out-braues his dignity: For ſweeteſt things turne ſowreſt by their deedes, Lillies that feſter,ſmell far worſe then weeds.
