"Sonnets from the Portuguese" by Elizabeth Barrett Browning holds immense literary significance for its deeply personal and passionate exploration of love. Comprising 44 sonnets, the collection captures Browning's intense emotions and her journey from doubt to devotion in her relationship with fellow poet Robert Browning. The beginning of Sonnet 43 is one of the most famous lines in all of English poetry: "How do I love thee? Let me count the ways.
