...poem ends with the couplet, "And yet, by heaven, I think my love as rare/ as any she belied with false compare." Shakespeare says that it is not more romantic to idealize some creep than to love someone for one's imperfections. Didn't Blumenthal get to the end of the sonnet?

Security stayed tight the day of the regatta--helping explain a mellow mood that was cooled further by the weather--although a crack member of Cambridge's "Alcohol Disposal unit" (unmounted division) said the police did not seize as much booze from students as in the past. Last year, bottles, cans and contraband milk cartons filled two dumpsters...
