In 1881 Rossetti published a second volume of poems, “Ballads and Sonnets,” which included the remaining sonnets of “The House of Life” sequence.

On 11 December 1881 Rossetti suffered a mild stroke, leaving his sight dim and his left side paralysed. For some years he had been mostly housebound on account of obesity, possible diabetes, chloral addiction and an excessive intake of alcohol, especially whisky.
