Shakespeare Sonnet 10.
Shakespeare penned 154 sonnets that were included in his 1609 'quarto'. These sonnets delve into themes like the flow of time, death, affection, aestheticism, unfaithfulness, and envy. The initial 126 sonnets are dedicated to a young male, while the final 28 are directed towards an enigmatic 'dark lady'.

Sonnet 10 chastises the young man for his self-hatred and refusal to procreate, urging him to overcome this disdain by bestowing his beauty upon a child, thereby enriching both the world and ensuring his own immortal legacy.
