This is a beautiful and touching poem. Shakespeare uses language and metaphor clearly and very accessible. This is a very sad poem, and he embodies the tragedy of events. Values, loyalty, virtue, shame and revenge are carefully studied. Lucretia's rhetorical mastery, combined with an incredible ecphratic passage depicting Troy, creates a truly amazing poem.
