These two great poems date from Shakespeares early years and are full of passion and invention. In Venus and Adonis, the goddess of love pleads with the beautiful boy to submit to her advances and become her lovebut he only wants to hunt boar. In the more serious The Rape of Lucrece, Shakespeare draws on the Roman tale of the Emperor Tarquins desire for Lucrece and its tragic consequences.
