Lines from his comic, erotic, tragic poem Venus and Adonis were on everyone's lips.The appearance in 1594 of the darkly reflective and richly descriptive Rape of Lucrece confirmed his fame as 'Sweet Master Shakespeare', Elizabethan England's most brilliant non-dramatic poet. Shorter poems in this volume testify further to Shakespeare's versatility and to his poetic fame.; Includes bibliographical references (p. 546-568) and indexes; Venus and Adonis; The rape of Lucrece, and the shorter poems

This volume features the narrative poems Venus and Adonis and The Rape of Lucrece, as well as shorter poems, such as the collection of sonnets and amorous lyrics entitled The Passionate Pilgrim and 'The Phoenix and Turtle'. Also included are various poems and epigrams attributed to Shakespeare."
