Sonnet 30
Wow, this sonnet is quite difficult to understand. It takes everything you have to even make it through a line without messing up. A lot of "s" and "w". But after going back, and back and back again and again and again, I think I got that thinking back on the past, thinking about the death of friends and crying about it "then can I drown an eye", cry? "My precious friends hid in death's dateless night". Death of friends. After thinking back which I don't do often, I remember the good times with those friends and the sorrows end.? "Which I new pay, as if not paid before. But if the while I think on thee (dear friend) All losses are restored and sorrows end." Maybe! I tried! :)
