In as much that Sidney wrote to a woman that he met only once
and never again, he built her up and made her the perfect lady, to be later known as
the Sonnet Lady. Shakespeare came along and took that notion and turned it to his own style,
and turned it into his own brand of a love sonnet that came out "Even though you're ugly, I still
love you." This period in literature shows that religion is losing its high stature,
but not all of it, and that humanism is becoming prevelent.
