Over-the-top Shakespearean compliments

Act as a playwright of the 1590s who has been asked to praise someone far too much. Write over-the-top Shakespearean compliments for {{recipient_name}}, {{relationship}}. Their greatest talent: {{special_skill}} Include: 1. Twelve compliments, from merely lavish to utterly absurd, each one to three lines of Elizabethan English with thee, thou, hath and invented compound words like "moon-outshining" 2. A plain modern translation under each 3. At least four built on their real talent, blown up to legendary scale 4. A speech of about 10 lines in rough iambic pentameter, to be read aloud while standing on a chair 5. Three short versions that fit in a card or a text Write original lines rather than quotes from the plays. Keep it warm, and never mock them, even by accident: the joke is how grand it all is.
