Excerpt from The Sonnets of William Shakespeare: New Light and Old Evidence Should my grouping of the sonnets seem auda cions, it may be remembered that their first publisher only claimed to give the public a large number of Shakespeare's minor poems, as they reached his hands (probably from three distinct sources). I disclaim, in altering Thorpe's ar rangement, any attempt to alter Shakespeare. In my judgment, every lover and student of these poems has as good a right to change the order in which they are printed as their first pirate publisher, even a better right, if by so doing their interest is enhanced and their meaning clarified.
