Explanation

Shakespeare’s sonnets follow a set structure: three quatrains and a closing couplet, with a regular rhyme scheme. They often explore love and may develop an idea by raising a question or problem and then answering or resolving it. Shakespeare did not write the first sonnets, and his sonnets were written in English, not Italian.
