As in Sonnet Seven, Milton writes the first verse paragraph of this great poem, Lycidas -- the first fourteen lines - in essentially the form of a sonnet.

We hear in the 1637 Lycidas those same cries of unripeness and under-preparation that we had heard in the 1631 sonnet, "How soon hath Time, the subtle thief of youth."

It's not a perfect sonnet in quite the same way that Sonnet Seven was.
它并不像《十四行诗第七首》那样是严格意义上的十四行诗。
It's this line, "And with forc'd fingers rude" - this is called a broken line or a half-line, and this broken line has been read, I think, rightly as Milton's indication to his reader that he's not even up to the task of writing a sonnet at this point.
是这句,“我不得已伸出我这粗鲁的手指“,-这叫做断裂句,或者半句,将这句理解为,弥尔顿向读者暗示他此时甚至,还不能写好十四行诗是正确的。
