Sonnet 110: Alas, 'Tis True, I Have Gone Here and There

SONNETCAST – William Shakespeare's Sonnets Recited, Revealed, Relived

With his exceptionally candid and forthright Sonnet 110, William Shakespeare at once completes his apotheosis of his young lover, while at the same time confessing to him that yes, he too has had affairs with other people, but also reassuring him that these other lovers were no match for him and that they pale, compared to him, into insignificance, seeing that he is as "a god in love" to whom our poet feels and here declares himself to be inseparably tied.
