Sonnet 13
|
Sonnets 13 and 26 have nothing to do with "Amatory sonnets". Identically they both deal with the same autobiographic theme of its author who did expose himself with lethal risks he had not foreseen. He defends himself against the accusation of his lack of fidelity /loyalty.
He ambigously argues with his inner opposite, his virtue /his Queen. One can assume with considerable plausibility, that the author (Marlowe/alias Shakespeare) sees himself metaphorically in the mirror.
- Sonnet 13 - the foolish Boy that did aspire to touch the glory of hihg heavens Frame, compare me to Leander struggling in the waves, not able to attain his safety's shore
- Sonnet 26- the proud aspiring Boy that needs would pry into the secrets of the highest seats, had some conceit to gain content thereby or else his folly sure was wondrous great
Superficially the last 2 lines in sonnet 13 and 26 differ, they disclose the matured art of Marlowe's (alias Shakespeare's) remarkable verbal dexterity, his incomparable astute use of ambiguity and ambivalence ..
