In which I read Shakespeare's Sonnet 81 in a reconstruction of early 17th century pronunciation, and also in my normal accent for comparison.

Note, in this reading, that the words "grave" and "have" are full rhymes, as are "o'er-read" (inf.) and "dead". You can read more about this on the entry at my patreon page for this sonnet:
