Music to hear, why hear'st thou music sadly?
Sweets with sweets war not, joy delights in joy:
Why love'st thou that which thou receiv'st not gladly,
Or else receiv'st with pleasure thine annoy?
If the true concord of well-tun'd sounds
By unions married do offend thine ear,
They do but sweetly chide thee, who confounds
In singleness the parts that thou should'st bear:
Mark how one string sweet husband to another,
Strikes each in each by mutual ordering;
Resembling sire, and child, and happy mother,
Who all in one, one pleasing note do sing;
  Whose speechless song being many, seeming one,
  Sings this to thee, "Thou single wilt prove none."

William Shakespeare (Sonnet VIII)
