I edited - play on!
(The way I wrote the crown, of course, meant the first sonnet was written last. I begin a sestina with the final three lines too. I think there's something wrong with me.

Or do you want to give someone else a crack at it?I thought I'd deleted it - a quick write, then I realized I'd got the whole thing wrong according to your rules, and it was such a negative moan anyway. Won't get to it til later today - I shall return!
There is no rush of course, if indeed you are planning on revising.
I wrote a Heroic Crown once, and the first sonnet consisted of the first lines of all the following sonnets.
Thanks again for playing. Looking forward to your return!
