I attach a patch with Shakespeare's sonnet completely fixed: the poem is replaced by the version included in Wikipedia (Shakespeare, William. Duncan-Jones, Katherine. Shakespeare’s Sonnets. Bloomsbury Arden 2010. p. 113).
Thank you, Juan Manuel. With you patch the text becomes almost identical to- Shakespeare's Sonnets (1883) William Shakespeare, edited by William J. Rolfe https://en.wikisource.org/wiki/Shakespeare%27s_Sonnets_(1883)/Sonnet_1 - Shakespeare's Sonnets (1923) William Shakespeare, edited by Edward Bliss Reed https://en.wikisource.org/wiki/Shakespeare%27s_Sonnets_(1923)_Yale/Text/Sonnet_1
I think, variations are not significant: "niggardly" / "niggarding" and a few more commas in the older editions.
I hope, Unicode single comma apostrophe U+2019 (right single quotation mark) is not a problem (vs. \x27 ASCII character). Anyway it is used in the current variant and nobody complains.
I think, the patch should be applied to avoid proliferation of a variant with strange spelling in the web.
