Sonnets On The Months: And Other Poems, Descriptive, Domestic, And National (1863) is a collection of poetry written by John Askham. The book contains a series of sonnets, each dedicated to a different month of the year, as well as other poems that explore themes of domestic life and national identity. The sonnets in this collection are written in a traditional form, with each poem consisting of 14 lines and a strict rhyme scheme. Askham uses this form to explore the unique characteristics and moods of each month, from the icy reign of January to the fertile May and the burning June. In addition to the sonnets, the book also includes other poems that touch on a variety of subjects. Some of these poems are focused on domestic life, exploring the joys and struggles of family relationships, while others take a broader view, examining the state of the nation and the role of poetry in shaping national identity.Overall, Sonnets On The Months: And Other Poems, Descriptive, Domestic, And National is a rich and varied collection of poetry that showcases John Askham's skill as a writer and his ability to capture the many moods and experiences of life.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
