The tone of Shakespeare's "Sonnet 29" resembles Macbeth's tone because of the usage of the words and their meanings; but differs in that in "Sonnet 29", Shakespeare shows a more emotional side than he displays in Macbeth. Both Shakespeare and Macbeth as narrators possess outlooks of dejection, which manifests in monologues.
Shakespeare's somber tone in the onset of the sonnet displays a wealth of melancholy. Many interpretations of the source of his sorrows might be traced to his social status during that period of his life or the harsh criticisms brought on by his literary opponents. As result of this, "Sonnet 29" begins with Shakespeare describing his desperate cries for a change in his fortune as he states "I all alone beweep my outcaste state." Despite his prayers a "deaf heaven" doesn't reply. This could signify that he has lost faith in an accommodating god or heaven, or this could also be a reference to the bleak circumstances of the medieval period, nevertheless, it all changes when he begins to think about his young muse.
Macbeth's monologue echoes the theme of depression. As soon as Macbeth learns of the dreadful fatality of Lady Macbeth, he is quick to respond without hesitation or misery for his companion. He is nihilistic because of his pessimistic standpoint on life and death. Macbeth is resigned to the fact that existence "Is a tale told by an idiot, full of sound and fury." Much like the beginning of "Sonnet 29", we encounter this cynical point of view through the view of Macbeth. Additionally, Macbeth also states that "Life's but a walking shadow," which personifies his jaded outlook on life, possibly influenced by the previous events leading up to Macbeth's current stance.
Unlike the tone of Macbeth, "Sonnet 29" begins to take a more cheerful outlook on the circumstances. "For thy sweet love remember'd such wealth brings," is the first instance that indicates a shift from the gloom depicted in the lyrics above to a more sanguine mind-set. Shakespeare does not want to "change [his] state with kings," because of his new manner after thinking of his muse. In contrast, Macbeth's tone is constant and continues to be ambivalent.
There can be many similarities that can be drawn both of "Sonnet 29" and Macbeth and the passionate lyrical tone, but there's a clear difference in that "sonnet29" changes from misery to more light hearted and optimistic.
