We emphasise with the son‚ who is about to be killed Biblical language is used such as ’clave’ and ’spake’ to help set the appropriate tone‚ this helps Owen stress what those who promote and wage war are doing to young men sent

In the story‚ as he was about to sacrifice his son as an offering to God‚ an angel comes down and tells him to stop and to sacrifice a lamb instead. He does as he’s told and makes a covenant with God saying that Abram will be the Father of a new nation. But the twist in this poem is that when Abram is told by the angel

The 40 Year Old Virgin is proof that comedies can still be funny. Sadly‚ movies like this‚ with a kind of consistent humor‚ come out too rarely.

If you’re looking for a successor to There’s Something About Mary and American Pie‚ look no further. It has arrived‚ and in my opinion‚ is more enjoyable than either of them
