"On His Blindness" / "When I consider how my light is spent" -- Sonnet 19 by John Milton

#OnHisBlindness #JohnMilton #Milton
The sonnet "When I consider how my light is spent" is popularly known as "On His Blindness" and is a piece where Milton speaks of completely losing his eyesight while a number of years of his life lie ahead of him.
The poem is autobiographical and also seeks to explain the poet's comprehension of his condition in light of him being a subject of God, the creator who drives all existence and all beings within it.

Mam please explain Rugby Chapel by Matthew Arnold

[@Saketmishra02]

Ma'am I believe Milton followed Petrarchan style of sonnet that is a sonnet composed of an octave and a Sestet . So the stanza division is intended to be different.

[@Pratyanchahere]

The first slide is indeed the octave and the second the sestet.
