Elizabethan era was all about love and it's consequences . In this very first episode we took over one of the poets of this era , EDMUND SPENSER and his poem , FROM THE AMORETTI ( SONNET NO. 75 ) and tried to know and feel a little more of it . The poem is based on the theme of love and immortality. Sonnet 75 is part of Amoretti, a sonnet cycle that describes Spenser’s courtship and marriage to Elizabeth Boyle. Amoretti was published in 1595 and it included 89 sonnets and a series of short poems called Anacreontics and Epithalamion. The volume was titled “ Amoretti and Epithalamion. Written not long since by Edmund Spenser ”. Hope this poem added happiness and beauty to your day
