Sonnets To A Lady (1908)

By Ernest Druce

Book Overview

Sonnets To A Lady is a book of poetry written by Ernest Druce and published in 1908. The collection contains 50 sonnets, each one dedicated to a different lady. The poems are written in a traditional Shakespearean sonnet form, with 14 lines and a rhyme scheme of ABAB CDCD EFEF GG. The sonnets explore themes of love, beauty, and nature, and are filled with rich imagery and vivid descriptions. Druce's language is lyrical and romantic, and his poems evoke a sense of nostalgia for a bygone era of courtly love and chivalry. The book is a testament to the enduring power of the sonnet form, and to the timeless appeal of love poetry. It is a beautiful and evocative collection that will appeal to anyone who appreciates the beauty of language and the power of love.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
