It focuses on comparing Shakespeare's sonnets with those of Barnaby Barnfield, specifically referencing Barnfield's sonnets published in January 1595. The text discusses how Barnfield's sonnets, particularly Sonnet XII and Sonnet XVII, appear to be influenced by Shakespeare's Sonnet LIII.\n\n## Context\nThis section is part of the [FACSIMILE OF THE EDITION OF 1609](arke:01KG6S4GWQC7KPJ59BAYCY3HXR) and was extracted from the file named [pdf-01KG6Q7Q25RHMFT3SJXPV18VFF.txt](arke:01KG6S2X2EBB305ENM00G16GWA). It is contained within the collection titled [PDF Workflow Main Test 2026-01-30T00:26:53](arke:01KG6NWQ2H2K4PGG7H4ZHYCZ3Y). The section follows the content titled \"Words peculiar to sonnets and early plays.\" and precedes the section titled \"III. The sonnets in private circulation.\"\n\n## Contents\nThe text of this section quotes lines from Barnaby Barnfield's sonnets, comparing them to Shakespeare's Sonnet LIII. Barnfield's sonnets mention classical figures like Ganymede and Adonis, contrasting their beauty with that of his \"fair friend.\" The author suggests that Barnfield's descriptions of Adonis are \"crude echoes\" of Shakespeare's portrayal in Sonnet LIII, where the counterfeit is poorly imitated after the subject.","description_generated_at":"2026-01-30T06:26:11.682Z","description_model":"gemini-2.5-flash-lite","description_title":"# SONNETS OF SHAKESPEARE","end_line":9199,"extracted_at":"2026-01-30T06:24:08.806Z","extracted_by":"structure-extraction-lambda","label":"# SONNETS OF SHAKESPEARE","source_file":"01KG6S2X2EBB305ENM00G16GWA","start_line":9182,"text":"# SONNETS OF SHAKESPEARE\n\nIn two sonnets (published in Jan. 1595) Barnfield depreciated the beauty of heroes of antiquity compared with his own fair friend. *Sonnet* XII begins:—\n\nSome talke of Ganymede th’ Idalian Boy\nAnd some of faire *Adonis* make their boast,\nSome talk of him [i.e. Castor], whom louely *Laeda* [i.e. mother of Helen] lost . . .\n\n*Sonnet* XVII opens:—\n\nCherry-lipt *Adonis* in his snowie shape,\nMight not compare with his pure Iuorie white.\n\nBoth seem crude echoes of Shakespeare’s sonnet LIII:—\n\nDescribe Adonis, and the counterfeit\nIs poorly imitated after you.\n","title":"# SONNETS OF SHAKESPEARE"},"relationships":[{"peer":"01KG6S4GWQC7KPJ59BAYCY3HXR","peer_type":"frontmatter","predicate":"in"},{"peer":"01KG6S2X2EBB305ENM00G16GWA","peer_type":"file","predicate":"extractedFrom"},{"peer":"01KG6NWQ2H2K4PGG7H4ZHYCZ3Y","peer_type":"collection","predicate":"collection"},{"peer":"01KG6S5PV37J9RT1H504JGDST9","peer_type":"section","predicate":"prev"},{"peer":"01KG6S5HR8AY1MW5SZ0NY4P5YS","peer_type":"section","predicate":"next"}],"ver":3,"created_at":"2026-01-30T06:24:08.971Z","ts":"2026-01-30T06:26:11.918Z","edited_by":{"method":"manual","user_id":"01KFF5C36SQEVDHC9CBNZZJH9K"}}
