Description

Originally published in 1860, A Book of Christian Sonnets is a classic collection of 100 sonnets of the author. The Author regards it as by its fixed laws and its structure the very best form of poetry for one short, complete, meditative lesson. A collection of such distinct, separate little poems, mostly written within a recent period, and not mingled with other forms of poetry, constitutes this little volume. The notes annexed are historical and illustrative, elucidatory of what from the necessary brevity of the verse might be otherwise left obscure, or such as seemed to be required by the unevasible claims and the infinite worth of the revealed Christian truth, which makes the texture of these sonnets.
