Advice on using this site.

If you know the number of the sonnet you wish to look at, then go to any one of the three categories below, Sonnets 1-50, 51-100 or 101-154, then follow directions from there. If you do not know which sonnet it is you wish to look at, but you know a line or a phrase, then do a global search using the plain text web page listed below. Your browser usually provides a means for doing this. For Windows Explorer, for example, use Control plus F to find the phrase. Then, having identified the sonnet, return to the home page, using the Back button on your browser and navigate from there. If you are in difficulty, go to the Map of the site, (this page), which should help to give you your bearings. There is a first line index listed below. Look at the page for the sonnet you want and you might find the answer to a homework or general question. All the sonnets are linked to individual commentaries. (See the general notes General notes for details of sources, policies, etc.). Works by other sonneteers and other authors are also listed here.
