Option 3 : True Love
The correct answer is True Love.

- The sonnet by William Shakespeare is easily one of the most recognizable sonnets of all time. It explores the nature of love and what “true love” is.
- According to Shakespeare, love is not bound to time, it isn't a victim or subject to the effects of time. Love transcends the hours, the weeks, any measurement, and will defy it right to the end, until Judgement Day.
- Thus, we can conclude that True Love is composed by Shakespeare and not Milton.
