""Sonnets: A Sequence On Profane Love"" is a collection of sonnets written by George Henry Boker. The sonnets explore the theme of profane love, which refers to love that is not based on religious or moral principles. The collection is divided into three parts, each with its own focus. The first part deals with the initial stages of love, from infatuation to the first kiss. The second part delves deeper into the complexities of love, exploring jealousy, betrayal, and the pain of separation. The third and final part reflects on the aftermath of love, including the bitterness and regret that can come with its end. Throughout the collection, Boker uses the sonnet form to express his thoughts and emotions in a lyrical and poetic way. The language is rich and evocative, and the imagery is vivid and sensual. ""Sonnets: A Sequence On Profane Love"" is a timeless exploration of the human heart and the many facets of love.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations. Because we believe this work is culturally important, we have made it available as part of our commitment for protecting, preserving, and promoting the world's literature in affordable, high quality, modern editions, that are true to their original work.
