Brettville Jensen points out that if the sonnets are the expression ofgrief at the loss of his beloved, it is a queer contradiction thatSonnet 144, which voices his most poignant sorrow, should date from1599, the year, according to Brandes, when Shakespeare's comedy periodbegan! It is doubtless true that the plays and even the sonnets mark greatperiods in the life of the poet, but we may be sure that the relationbetween experience and literary creation was not so literal as Brandeswould have us... believe. The change from mood to mood, from play to play, was gradual, and it never destroyed Shakespeare's poise and sanity. Weshall not judge Shakespeare rightly if we believe that personal feelingrather than artistic truth shaped his work. Two years later Collin, a critic of fine insight and appreciation, wrotein _Samtiden_[20] an article on the sonnets of Shakespeare. He begins bypicturing Shakespeare's surprise if he could rise from his grave in thelittle church at Stratford and look upon the pompous and rather naivebust, and hear the strange tongues of the thousands of pilgrims at hisshrine.
