Shakespeare claims that the object of his sonnet in , Shall I Compare Thee to a Summers Day, will be immortal because of the written word. His beloved's summer will continue as long as there are people alive to read the sonnet.
Shakespeare ensures that the object will be forever in human memory, saved from the oblivion that accompanies death. He achieves this through his verse, believing that, as history writes itself, his object will become one with time. The last lines reaffirms the poet's hope that as long as there is breath in mankind, his poetry too will live on, and ensure the immortality of his muse.
The normal syntax would be to place the verb before the object: "all prefiguring you". But for the sake of the rhyme, Shakespeare has reversed the verb and object resulting in "all you prefiguring". The meaning is the same.
When talking about someone's mood, heaviness meant sadness or depression. When talking about a physical object it meant the quality of having a lot of weight. Shakespeare sometimes made puns on these two meanings of heavy and heaviness.
