Sonnets

Sonnets are written with a distinct rhyme scheme. In William Shakespeare's sonnet, he does not carry a line more than one quadrant. In Spencer's case, he takes for one quadrant and uses it in the next. I believe this would be a greater challenge for a writer to take on. With the example provided, Shakespeare carried his sonnet with an ABAB style and finished with a CDCD, EE. However, in Spencer's case his sonnet begins with ABAB and concludes with EFEF, GG. Edmund Spencer is my preference over Shakespeare; for his writing falls closer to how i would write. I enjoy the flow, it as if it could slowly go on for ever.
