From Shakespeare's
'for that riches where is my deserving? '*
in Sonnet 87
you might suppose
that 'that' once went for 'those';
for that,
that 'that' went for 'your';
or went for neither -
'riches' went for 'richness'.
From that three supposes
you might suppose
that one time too,
'choosed' was used
for 'chose'.

Thanks for sharing one of Shakespeare's best sonnets. The last two lines are so true. 'In sleep a king, but waking no such matter'. You provide shrewd linguistic analysis here.
