I fail to see how he was rude.
And iKitten, I'm going to guess that that's one of Shakespeare's poems? Not sure though.
iKitten:
Keep going.
Cpt.Fantastic:
Naw, 11 syllables per line, 12 lines, ABABCCDEDEFF rhyme structure, so I wouldn't say it's a Shakespeare sonnet, seeing as the trend there was 10 syllables per line, 14 lines and ABABCDCDEFEFGG rhyming structure.

KharBevNor:
Shakespeare didn't just write sonnets. Unless I'm horrifically mistake, it's from Venus and Adonis, by old Bill.
Now, a guessing poetry thread? That would be more like it.
"From childhood's hour I have not been
As others were; I have not seen
As others saw; I could not bring
My passions from a common spring.
From the same source I have not taken
My sorrow; I could not awaken
My heart to joy at the same tone;
And all I loved, I loved alone."
SpacemanSpiff:
Alone by Edgar Allan Poe. Yup, they even teach that at German schools.
And now for another classic (character names omitted as they would give it away)
--- Quote from: A famous author wrote ---
Character1: My fair young lady, may I make so free
As to lend you my arm and company?
Character2: I'm not a lady, am not fair;
I can go home without your care.
