Over a hundred sonnets, opening with Rossetti’s own definition of the form as “a moment’s monument” and divided into two parts, Youth and Change and Change and Fate. They move from the ecstasy of love through grief, regret and the passing of time, and include the famous Willowwood sonnets.

One of the finest sonnet sequences in English, central to the Pre-Raphaelite movement. Download the free EPUB.
