莎翁的Sonnet 144 比较独特，因为这里面同时提到两个主人翁：Fair Youth and Dad Lady，以及他们之间的复杂矛盾。

Sonnet 144

BY WILLIAM SHAKESPEARE

Two loves I have of comfort and despair,

Which like two spirits do suggest me still

The better angel is a man right fair,

The worser spirit a woman coloured ill.

To win me soon to hell, my female evil

Tempteth my better angel from my side,

And would corrupt my saint to be a devil,

Wooing his purity with her foul pride.

And, whether that my angel be turn’d fiend,

Suspect I may, yet not directly tell,

But being both from me both to each friend,

I guess one angel in another’s hell.

   Yet this shall I ne’er know, but live in doubt,

   Till my bad angel fire my good one out.
