Sonnet 121:
’Tis better to be vile than vile esteemed
When not to be receives reproach of being,
And the just pleasure lost, which is so deemed
Not by our feeling but by others' seeing.
For why should others’ false adulterate eyes
Give salutation to my sportive blood?
Or on my frailties why are frailer spies,
Which in their wills count bad that I think good?
No, I am that I am; and they that level
At my abuses reckon up their own:
I may be straight though they themselves be bevel;
By their rank thoughts my deeds must not be shown,
Unless this general evil they maintain:
All men are bad and in their badness reign.

Nice! I love when I find an example style that I don't generally gravitate to/have a lot of exposure to that captures me nonetheless. The driving force coupled with the Shakespeare is amazing.

Getting all stabby with "deemed" there - the relentless assault of lofty language is delicious
