#ardhendude #adsenglishliterature #wbbhse #cbse #ncert #baenglish #maenglishlecture William Shakespeare’s Sonnets still rank among the world’s best-loved poems and his sonnet no 130 (My mistress' eyes are nothing like the sun)  stands unique as Unconventional Love Poem which was written to a “dark lady,” whom the poet seemingly cannot resist. The form of the poem is an English variation of the traditional fourteen-line sonnet (abab, cdcd, efef, gg). Here the rending effects of time and the eternalizing possibilities of art are missing; instead a criticism of Petrarchan Cliché models.
