There is only one couplet in Shakespeare's Sonnet 55. As in most others of his sonnets, it provides the concluding two lines of the poem and it summarises the theme of the whole sonnet (in this case, that the addressee will be immortalised by the poem).
The couplet may be rendered as follows in modern English:
So, till you, on the day of judgement, rise
You'll live in this, and dwell in lovers' eyes.

We cannot say with certainty. However, there is considerable evidence to suggest that all the poems in Sonnets 1-126 were addressed to Shakespeare's patron, Henry Wriothesley.

How is sonnet 55 and sonnet 43 different?
Although both sonnets deal with a contrast, they are different contrasts. Sonnet 43, with its constant imagery of light and shadow, contrasts what we see in dreams with what we see when we are awake. Sonnet 55 contrasts the immortality of the subject of literature with the ephemeral nature even of brick-and-mortar monuments.In Sonnet 43, Shakespeare is saying that he has clearer vision in dreams because of the presence of the person to whom the sonnet is addressed. If he could only see this person in the day, he would see that much clearer. Its tone is regretful and hopeful; regretful that the person is not present but hopeful that he or she will be, hence "All days are nights to see till I see thee."In Sonnet 55, however, he is saying that the subject of the poem will live on because he has been immortalized in verse, which outlives even stone monuments. Its tone is exultant, even boastful. "Your praise shall still find room even in the eyes of all posterity that wear this world out to the ending doom."
