Question

When, in disgrace with fortune and men's eyes,

I all alone beweep my outcast state
And trouble deaf heaven with my bootless cries
And look upon myself and curse my fate,
5 Wishing me like to one more rich in hope,
Featured like him, like him with friends possess'd,
Desiring this man's art and that man's scope,
With what I most enjoy contented least;
Yet in these thoughts myself almost despising,
10 Haply I think on thee, and then my state,
Like to the lark at break of day arising
From sullen earth, sings hymns at heaven's gate;
For thy sweet love remember'd such wealth brings
That then I scorn to change my state with kings.

Answer 2

What does it mean to be "in disgrace" with "men's eyes"?

How are men looking at him?

Based on my understanding of William Shakespeare's Sonnet 29, The emotions portrayed of the speaker in Sonnet 29 are one of depression: he assumes himself to be "in disgrace with fortune," which means that he has been having bad luck. He also feels in disgrace with "men's eyes," concluding that the general public or the society looks at him unfavorably. These two things gave him the implication that he is lonely. Because the public eye looks at him unfriendly.
