Answer:

The beauty of the person addressed will outlive all wars.

Explanation:

Sonnet 55 by William Shakespeare talks about the power poetry has, since as long as the sonnet is read, the person described in the sonnet still lives.

Second Quatrain:

<em>"When wasteful war shall statues overturn"</em> =  even when wars will destroy monuments...

<em>"And broils root out the work of masonry,"</em> = and battles will destroy stone buildings

<em>"Nor Mars his sword nor war's quick fire shall burn the living record of your memory." </em>= not even Mars' sword of fire (the Roman god of war)  will destroy this register of our memory (that is, the present poem).
