註釋
When Shakespeare says in Sonnet 72, 「Unless you would devise some virtuous lie,/To do more for me than mine own desert,」 he is using the word desert in the sense of 「worthiness; deserving,」 a word that is perhaps most familiar to us in the plural, meaning 「something that is deserved,」 as in the phrase just deserts. This word goes back to the Latin word d?ore,} 「to devote oneself to the service of,」 which in Vulgar Latin came to mean 「to merit by service.」 D?ore} is made up of d?, meaning 「thoroughly,」 and servo, 「to serve.」 Knowing this, we can distinguish this desert from desert, 「a wasteland,」 and desert, 「to abandon,」 both of which go back to Latin d?, 「to forsake, leave uninhabited,」 which is made up of d?, expressing the notion of undoing, and the verb serere, 「to link together.」 We can also distinguish all three deserts from dessert, 「a sweet course at the end of a meal,」 which is from the French word desservir, 「to clear the table.」 Desservir is made up of des-, expressing the notion of reversal, and servir (from Latin servoe ), 「to serve,」 hence, 「to unserve」 or 「to clear the table.」
當莎士比亞在第72首十四行詩中說：「除非你能編出善意的謊言/把我說得比我本人強得多」， 這裡desert 的意思就是「應得的東西」。 對這個詞，我們最熟悉的大概是其複數形式（意思是「應得的東西」）。例如在詞組just deserts 中。 該詞的起源可以追溯到拉丁詞deservire ， 意為「為…而獻身」， 在俗拉丁語中，意思就變成了「依據服務應得…」。Deservire 由de- 意思是「完全地，徹底地」和 servire 「服務」組成。 知道了這些，我們就可以把desert 與 desert 「荒原」和 desert 「放棄」區別開來。 後面兩個意義可追溯到拉丁語deserere 「遺棄，無人居住」， 它由de- 表示「不做」的概念和動詞 serere 「連接到一起」組成。 我們也能把所有這三個deserts 與 dessert 「正餐最後上的一道甜食」區分開來， 後者來自法語詞desservir 「收拾桌子」。 Desservir 由表達「反，逆」概念的des- 和 servir 組成（來自拉丁語 servire ）， 意為「服務」、「因此「、「不上菜」或「清理桌子」
