Which of the following best describes the function of “time” in the following poem, sonnet 18 by william shakespeare? shall i compare thee to a summer’s day? thou art more lovely and more temperate: rough winds do shake the darling buds of may, and summer’s lease hath all too short a date; sometime too hot the eye of heaven shines, and often is his gold complexion dimm'd; and every fair from fair sometime declines, by chance or nature’s changing course untrimm'd; but thy eternal summer shall not fade, nor lose possession of that fair thou ow’st; nor shall death brag thou wander’st in his shade, when in eternal lines to time thou grow’st: so long as men can breathe or eyes can see, so long lives this, and this gives life to thee.
