"I love to hear her speak, yet well I know/ that music hath a far more pleasing sound" (885). This is from "My mistress' eyes." The tone is completely filled with satire. I think that he is making fun of every love poem every written. Which is a hypocritical considering Shakespeare wrote many cheese love poems himself. However, it is really funny. He, in a way, criticizes her and critiques her through the poem. But, at the end he says that he does love her, I think. It is a sort of cute poem.
