This edition by Benson brings together all but eight of the sonnets: A Lover s Complaint The Passionate Pilgrim mostly not by Shakespeare The Phoenix and the Turtle attributed to Shakespeare and elegies and other poems honoring Shakespeare by Jonson Milton Digges Herrick Strode Carew and others. Benson famously reorganized the sonnets probably out of concern that an old-fashioned sonnet sequence would not appeal to the generation of the Cavalier Poets. Many are run together to form poems of twenty-eight lines or more and all are given titles. Benson also made some effort to disguise the homoerotic content found in some sonnets perhaps most strikingly in his changes to Sonnet 101 O truant Muse what shall be thy amends which he runs together with Sonnet 100 under the title An invocation of his Muse while he also switches the gender of the pronouns to make the poet s lover female. </p><p>References: STC 22344; ESTC S106377; Bartlett 27; Grolier/Langland to Wither 84; Hayward 30; Pfozheimer 880 </p><p>Provenance: Alfred Henry Huth Morocco label Christie s New York 18 November 1977 lot 115 undesignated consignor Sotheby's London 26 April 1982 lot 439 Property of a Gentleman Robert S.
