cannot stop thinking about dorian's voice actor reading sonnet 25, about falling from the favour of the elite and finding joy and solace in loving and being loved by another man. rotating this in my mind 24/7.
Free Shakespeare's Sonnets Typeset
The lily I condemned for thy hand, And buds of marjoram had stol’n thy hair; The roses fearfully on thorns did stand, One blushing shame, another white despair;
May I present Shakespeare's Sonnets, sized for half letter (letter folio)?
Or would you prefer something else, something better (better what, ho or bro?) ...Bad rhymes aside, the full FREE pdf of Shakespeare's Sonnets can be found here in my public domain works library. Feel free to tag me if you use, or if you find any errors! This was my first time doing a typeset for poetry, and I wanted to make sure that the visual aspect of the media was portrayed in the layout, by giving the text a lot of space and putting each sonnet on it's own page. For the title page, I found a super cool art nouveau design I just had to use from streamlinehq (it's the wrong kind of lily, but still, vibes). Unfortunately, I was limited in only being to download 10 of them before I got hit with the subscription tier limit. So far I've managed to make all my typesets 100% free (outside of buying Affinity), but this maaay have to be my first purchase cause I just really love the full art sets. Art nouveau my beloved.
