When I’m in disgrace with everyone and my luck has deserted me, I sit all alone and cry about the fact that I’m an outcast, and bother God with useless cries, which fall on deaf ears, and look at myself and curse my fate, wishing that I had more to hope for, wishing I had this man’s good looks and that man’s friends, this man’s skills and that man’s opportunities, and totally dissatisfied with the things I usually enjoy the most. Yet, as I’m thinking these thoughts and almost hating myself, I happen to think about you, and then my condition improves—like a lark at daybreak rising up and leaving the earth far behind to sing hymns to God. For when I remember your sweet love, I feel so wealthy that I’d refuse to change places even with kings.

The couplet in this sonnet is:

<em>For thy sweet love remembered such wealth brings,;</em>

<em>That then I scorn to change my state with kings.</em>

A couplet refers to two successive rhyming lines that have the same meter. Moreover, the couplet forms a complete thought. In most sonnets, particularly Shakespearean ones, the couplet is placed at the end of the poem. The purpose of these lines is to emphasize the theme of the poem. Therefore, they give the feeling of conclusion. In this sonnet, these lines are effective in fulfilling this purpose, as they reemphasize the idea that the love of the woman is more important than all the riches and all the status in the world.
