A.Z. Foreman | "My love is as a fever" (Shakespeare's Sonnet 147 read in Early Modern Pronunciation) @a.z.foreman74 | Uploaded 1 year ago | Updated 2 minutes ago
My readings of Shakespeare's sonnets in Early Modern English pronunciation continue with Sonnet 147.
I have for reasons not entirely intelligible to my own self, set myself the task of recording all of Shakespeare’s sonnets in reconstructions of what various types of London English sounded like in the late Elizabethan/early Jacobean period (you might call it "Original Pronunciation" if you must, but it is not to be confused with Crystal's reconstruction). I'm recording them at a rate of (well, more or less) one every week. Most of them are subscriber-only on my Patreon account. Go ahead and make a pledge there to access them:

I am making just a select few, like this one, publicly available right now.
