From the Paper:

"Shakespeare is one of those gifted writers whose work is seen as having a particular aspect and his commission of his art is exemplary of the world in his day, yet one cannot fail to ask what his motivations are that he should tell the youth to seek out a wife and multiply his seed.
Then in sonnet ten he turns around as if to say it doesn't matter. What are his motivations then, his mind changes from one sonnet to the other is it perhaps that he does not want the boy to be unhappy in his pursuit of a wife?"
