The poem at the beginning of this song, which is not in these lyrics is Shakespeare's Sonnet 53.
<i>What is your substance, whereof are you made,
That millions of strange shadows on you tend?
Since every one hath, every one, one shade,
And you but one, can every shadow lend.</i>
Essentially saying; <i>"What are you made of that causes you to be reflected in millions of ways? Everyone else has only one shadow, but you, though you are only one person, are reflected in everything."</i>
