Matching the bolded phrases to their meanings in the context of this excerpt from William Shakespeare's Sonnet 2.

besiege - surround, overwhelm

deep trenches - deep pits, wrinkles

proud livery - charms

tatter'd weed - destroyed and wasted

The central theme of Shakespeare's Sonnet 2 is procreating being young for beauty's sake before it is too late. This is an important theme because average life could be thirty-five years. So it is important to have children before reaching forty years of age, because beauty can be overwhelmed, full of deep wrinkles, destroyed and wasted.
