Die Sonette by William Shakespeare
A sequence of 154 lyric poems that probe love, beauty, time and mortality through intimate addresses to a young patron and a mysterious lover while confronting a rival poet; the sonnets move between ardent praise, jealousy and moral reflection, repeatedly asserting the power of verse to preserve beauty and memory against aging and decay.
