description: This work analyzes Spenser's setting of the entire Amoretti courtship against a backdrop of sacred time and his efforts to demonstrate the interpenetration of the divine and the human. The eighty-nine sonnets are shown to be sequential in their complex pattern of balanced themes, structural frameworks, developing images, and clusters of etymological wordplay.
