is this really old english? it looks quite different from the other old english sentences.

also the annotation that this is from shakespeare´s sonnet 109 should not be included in the sentence.

This is not Old English. Pls change the flag.

Shakespeare wrote in Early Modern English. Miles apart from Old English.

@change. This person hasn't signed in since Aug.2013

I suppose it should also be ‘save’ (with a lowercase s) since it’s all written in a single line here.

Can we put it in two lines?
On another website I found it like this:
"For nothing this wide universe I call,
Save thou, my rose, in it thou art my all."

I would suggest entering it as a normal sentence and give in a comment how it is arranged in lines. That’s what I always do with German literature quotations.

fine with me:)
