Compare and contrast pre Twentieth century Poetry ‘Sonnet’ by Christina Rossetti and ‘Sonnet 18’ by William Shakespeare ‘‘Assist me some extemporal god of rhyme, for I am sure I shall turn sonneter. Devise, wit, write, pen; for I am for whole volumes in folio.’’ William Shakespeare-‘Love Labour’s Lost’ The English Sonnet is poem form consisting of 14 lines, each with 10 stressed and unstressed syllables known as iambic pentameter, with set rhyme of: a b a b c d c d e f e f g g. ‘Sonnet 18’ by Shakespeare conforms to this structure entirely without fault, whereas ‘Sonnet’ by Rossetti dose not. Instead it has an unusual pattern of a b b a a b b a c d d c c d. although both poems do contain 14 lines. Many sonnets are intensely personal divulging carnal interests and indulgences that suggest that they may not have been intended for public consumption. Others are deeply emotional, disclosing the author’s most private feelings and emotions that, again, may have been intended as private exercises.
