Shakespeare’s Sonnet 29By: Dane Rape

It’s a new day!

When,in disgrace with fortune and men’s eyes,

I all alone beweep myoutcast state

Wishing me like to one more rich in hope

Birthplace of Shakespeare

Utter desperation

Yet in these thoughts myself almost despising

A light shines through…

Like to the lark at break of day arising

From sullen earth, sings hymns at heaven’s gate

For thy sweet love remember’d such wealth brings

That I then scorn to change my state with kings.
