DOWNLOAD EBOOKExcerpt from C Sonnets by C Authors This little selection of Sonnets aims at including representative specimens of the most prominent English sonnet-writers from Wyatt to the present day. Much difference of opinion will naturally prevail as to what Sonnets ought to have been chosen; but it is hoped that ever taste will, at least, find here not a few examples of that fascinating form of verse adapted to its demands. Great difficulty has been experienced in the selection of examples from the many eminent sonnet-writers who adorn the literature of the age. I can only say that I have endeavoured to make my choice as representative and catholic as possible. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

DOWNLOAD EBOOKExcerpt from A Collection of English Sonnets They who require in poetry a succession of brilliant incidents, and award praise in proportion to the amount and intensity of excitement produced, will very probably cast upon the diminutive Sonnet a coldand contemptuous eye. Precluded, by its restricted limits, from exhibiting the details of romantic narra tive - and equally precluded, by its complicated and rigid texture, from expressing the sudden and rapid changes of passion, it cannot be supposed to possess any of the attractions uniformly demanded by the lovers of 'moving accidents' and 'tales that freeze the blood.' To an entirely different order of intellects the Sonnet appeals. It is with poetry as with external na ture, of which the most delightful portions are invari ably' those that lie out of the beaten pathway, and re quire to be sought. It is there that the affections concentrate themselves - that the heart, undisturbed by the impulses of a vague and wandering curiosity, is kept awake to love and beauty.

DOWNLOAD EBOOKThis 1865 edition was first printed in 1609 in London. Now, centuries after the Bard of Avon's death, his works remain popular, sought after, and worth republishing. This collection of sonnets is no different. This edition puts Shakespeare's fine 14-line poems in the spotlight, as it is devoid of any foreword, introduction, or any other type of writing but the sonnets. It includes all but one image - which is placed at the beginning of the book. In the absence of sonnet titles, the publishers did not make use of a table of contents. An index of first lines is provided instead, making it easier for the ardent Shakespeare fan to locate a particular sonnet out of the 154 included in the collection. It is delightful to discover that each page contains only a single sonnet, which facilitates clarity and ease of reading, aside from a satisfyingly "uncluttered" look. Reading the sonnets, one cannot but help sighing with delight at the beautiful rhymes and lines. The choice of words, combined with the fact that they do sound well with each other, makes lovers of the written word sigh with utter delight and joy. The romance oozing from virtually every line in Shakespeare's sonnets makes one keep reading one poem after the other compulsively. The clever themed grouping of the sonnets adds to the page-turning appeal of this edition. All in all, this is one volume to carry about, read, and re-read, especially when one needs a healthy dose of creative, or romantic, inspiration.
