Read the passage below and answer the question. Shall I compare thee to a summer's day? Thou art more lovely and more temperate:

Rough winds do shake the darling buds of May, And summer's lease hath all too short a date: Sometimes too hot the eye of heaven shines, And too often is his gold complexion dimm'd: Use context clues to determine the best meaning of the word temperate as used in the passage. volatile changing even rosy

Answer:

Temperate here in the poem would mean "even'.

Explanation:

"Sonnet 18" by William Shakespeare is also commonly known as "Shall I Compare Thee To A Summer's Day? This sonnet of Shakespeare shows the speaker's praise of his beloved.

By comparing his beloved to that of the summer weather, Shakespeare is using imagery to emphasize on the loveliness of the beloved. And when he said that she is more lovely and more temperate than the summer, he is implying that unlike the fluctuating summer weather, she is even in all circumstances. She radiates stability and is unaffected by anything.

Looks like temperate in this case means even.   She doesn't change as much as the summer weather.
