- Line-by-line explanation of the poem by a college prof --Like Rebecca? Her book of poems, first published by Pecan Grove Press of St. Mary's University, is now in an e-edition here: www.smashwords...
Watching your lectures makes me feel: I scorn to change my state with kings
Thank you Dr. 🙂🌷🌷
Dear Rebecca, thank you a lot for your explainations ! I've just discovered the sonnets 2 weeks ago, recited or song in french by Norah Krief at the Théâtre de la Bastille, Paris, and was amazed. Shakespeare's sonnet are not that famous in France... and I'm really shamed to say that we learn very little of Shakespeare at school!! A shamefull pity.
Since I discovered your explainations of the sonnets, I carefully listen to them. You drive me through a wonderfull world and make me understand the hidden beauty of a language I hardly understand.
Thank you Rebecca, from France !!!
...And thank you, Shakespeare, talking so well about human feelings...
Check out Benjamin McEvoy
Awesome!! English is not my native language, you help me understand this poem!!
I have spent my eternity to understand poetry but in vain until I discovered Rebecca Balcarel..Merci Beaucoup.
Thanks Rebecca. Very good. Now about the lark, a european bird which flies pretty much straight up and up, singing all the time until eventually it flies so high that it cannot be seen but can still be heard, presumably right then at Heaven's gate. Ned

Thank you
Wonderful! I love how you interpreted the sonnet verse by verse. Have you done more of these?
Awesome video, thank you!
One of the greatest literary minds in history wished that he had another mans talent and wit. Who was that man?
I love that even Shakespeare coveted and felt jealousy towards anothers talent
I wish we could know who he envied
Thank you! It helps a lot for me!
Thanks master
I disagree with your summing it up as "I think of you and it makes me happy". I know what you mean by it but I always thought the poem was essentially saying "Being loved by you makes me great"
He spends half the poem talking about being a huge loser but in the end would not change his state because as he is, he is loved by this paramour to whom the sommet is directed.
Its true that thinking on his love makes him happy but the poem is more about the state of his life.
Great video!!!
Thank you very much !!!!!!
this was so helpful, thank you!
Thanks for this explanation! I memorized this for high school some many (many many many) years ago, and while I had a passing familiarity with Shakespeare's penchant for bawdiness, I never thought to apply it to this sonnet. Very interesting - thanks again!
Indeed he is!
This helped me alot, thank you.
You're welcome!
Thanks.

Bootless prayers are those said without ones boots on. Those said in ones pyjammas before bed. These are generally the most earnest ones. All people in those times would have known that prayers in secret are those that God is most likely to listen to since this was the method prescribed by Christ.
It stinks that some people can take a beautiful poem, and turn it into something perverted. Thanks for explaining everything though, It'll really help with my homework.
Homework 5 years ago🤣🤣 what's up now
What's perverted about sex?
Sonnet 29: When, in disgrace with fortune and men’s eyes
BY WILLIAM SHAKESPEARE
When, in disgrace with fortune and men’s eyes,
I all alone beweep my outcast state,
And trouble deaf heaven with my bootless cries,
And look upon myself and curse my fate,
Wishing me like to one more rich in hope,
Featured like him, like him with friends possessed,
Desiring this man’s art and that man’s scope,
With what I most enjoy contented least;
Yet in these thoughts myself almost despising,
Haply I think on thee, and then my state,
(Like to the lark at break of day arising
From sullen earth) sings hymns at heaven’s gate;
For thy sweet love remembered such wealth brings
That then I scorn to change my state with kings.
