shed in his lifetime. (True)
5. He didnt write poetry, especially the Sonnets. (False)
He wrote the Sonnets. . .
So oft have I invoked thee for mu Muse
And found such fair assistance in my verse
As every alien pen hath got my use
And under thee their poesy disperse.
Thine eyes that taugth the dumb on highto sing
And heavy ignorance aloft to fly
Have addent feathers to the learneds wing
And given grase a double majesty.
Yet be most proud of that which I compile,
Whose influence is thine and born of thee:
In others works thou dost but mendthe style
And arts with thy sweet graces grased be;
But thou art all my art and dost advance
As high as learning my rude ignorance.
William Shakespear, Sonnet 78
