In this poem, shakspear is saying that his misterss is not perfect by any means, but he thinks he loves her more than anyone else in comparison. for example: 'If snow be white, why then her breasts are dun' In Shakespears day, women with white chests are made out to be the prettyest. He is saying here that her chest is not white it is 'dun.' Dun is a greyish brown color. This is insulting to his wife but at the end, he says how he couldn't have asked for anything more.
