Considering the parameters of the sonnet form -- fourteen lines and a limited variety of rhyme schemes -- a remarkable number of poets have popularized the sonnet, turning to its eloquence and unique form of expression. These beautiful sonnets describe love and friendship, from moments of elation to despairing words of love lost, from praising true friendship to the worship of a true love's sheer existence. There are sonnets by John Donne, William Shakespeare, John Keats, Elizabeth Barrett Browning, Robert Browning, Edmund Spenser, William Wordsworth, and others, as well as many anonymous sonnets from Elizabethan times. The sonnets are divided into themes of Passion, Testimony, Faith, Remembrance. 5" x 7 1/4".
