    Comment that the sonnet 130 of Shakespeare is an unconventional poem. Most of the sonnet sequences in Elizabethan England were modelled after that of Petrarch. Petrarch’s famous sonnet sequence was written as a series of love poems to an idealized and idolized mistress‚ Laura. In those sonnets Petrarch praises her beauty‚ her worth‚ and her perfection. He has used an extraordinary variety of metaphors‚ largely based on natural beauties. But in Shakespeare’s day these metaphors had already become

    Prufrock Analysis Prufrock‚ throughout lines 26-30‚ not only delineates his insecurity but also his indecisiveness and fear of rejection. These few lines give readers a snapshot of what the poem consists of: Prufrock’s constant self-doubt‚ ambivalence and passivity.

    Both Spenser ’s Sonnet 75 and Shakespeare ’s Sonnet 19 similarly claim to bestow immortality upon the beloved. Despite similar themes‚ however‚ these sonnets contrast sharply. Spenser ’s sonnet ostensibly reports a conversation between the poet and his beloved‚ whereas Shakespeare ’s sonnet directly addresses personified time‚ and shows the greater dramatic flair. Spenser ’s first two words‚ "One day"‚ eschew drama by setting his poem in a vague and unparticularised past. Line 1 tells
