What distinct quality does the speaker attribute to his beloveds face in this excerpt from William Shakespeares Sonnet 93?

Answer 1

The Sonnet goes like this:
So shall I live, supposing thou art true,
Like a deceived husband; so love's face
May still seem love to me, though altered new;
Thy looks with me, thy heart in other place:
For there can live no hatred in thine eye,
Therefore in that I cannot know thy change.
In many's looks, the false heart's history
Is writ in moods, and frowns, and wrinkles strange.
But heaven in thy creation did decree
That in thy face sweet love should ever dwell;
Whate'er thy thoughts, or thy heart's workings be,
Thy looks should nothing thence, but sweetness tell.
How like Eve's apple doth thy beauty grow,
If thy sweet virtue answer not thy show!
The highlighted phrase is the only excerpt which describes the beloved's face. But basically the whole sonnet is saying that the beloved appears to love, but in fact does not. "Thy looks with me, thy heart in other place" says the same thing: she is giving him loving looks when she's really thinking of some other guy.

Answer 2

The beloved always looks like he or she is in love.
