The past | | 14 | 114 | | 30: Sonnet XXVIII. | The edge of the green wave whitely doth hiss | | 14 | 106 | | 31: Sonnet XXX. | I do not know what truth the false untruth | | 14 | 111 | | 32: Sonnet XXXI. | I am older than Nature and her Time | | 14 | 104 | | 33: Sonnet XXXII. | When I have sense of what to sense appears, | | 14 | 105 | | 34: Sonnet XXXIII. | He that goes back does, since he goes, advance, | | 14 | 111 | | 35: Sonnet XXXIV. | Happy the maimed, the halt, the mad, the blind | | 14 | 107 | | 36: Sonnet XXXV. | Good. I have done. My heart weighs. I am sad. | | 14 | 127 |
