 The great object of fhe Sonnet seems to be, to express in musical numbers and as it were with individed breath, some occasional thought or personal feeling «some fee-grief due to the poet's breast». It is a sigh uttered from the fulness of the heart, an involuntary aspiration born and diying in the same moment.
