""How Do I Love Thee" may be the favorite poem of lovers and other who believes that love is important in life. E. Barrett Browning wrote "How Do I Love Thee" as a classical love poem. Shakespeare created the poem, "My Mistress' Eyes." Both of these poems are written about love. Both authors use different elements of poetry to bring the poems alive, but "My Mistress' Eyes" establishes a sympathetic contract as the poem shows the author loves his mistress even though she may not be beautiful in the eyes of others. The best way to decide which poem will have more sympathy is to analyze and then compare both of them."
