▲Forty-four love sonnets by [[Victorian Britain|Victorian era]] British poet [[Elizabeth Barrett Browning]].
Written in 1845–46 after she met fellow poet Robert Browning and before they married, the sonnets remain among the most popular love poetry of all time. The collection was published in 1850 as being translated "from the Portugese" in order to provide some measure of privacy for the Brownings.

I shall but love thee better after death. }}
