    richer or poorer‚ in sickness and in health’. It is as if Shakespeare presents his view of love through playing with the words of the Wedding Service. Though love‚ of course‚ is not identical to marriage. There is some evidence that Shakespeare’s lover was planning to get married (to someone else). If so‚ the start of the poem could take on a more sinister tone‚ almost as if Shakespeare is threatening to ‘admit impediments’ to the wedding‚ and questioning whether it is in fact a ‘marriage of true
