    SONNET #19 by: William Shakespeare D EVOURING time‚ blunt thou the lion’s paws‚ And make the earth devour her own sweet brood; Pluck the keen teeth from the fierce tiger’s jaws‚ And burn the long-lived phoenix in her blood; Make glad and sorry seasons as they fleet’st‚ And do whate’er thou wilt‚ swift-footed Time‚ To the wide world and all her fading sweets‚ But I forbid thee one most heinous crime: O‚ carve not with thy hours my love’s fair brow‚ Nor draw no lines there with thine antique

    Sonnet 116 Let me not to the marriage of true minds Admit impediments. Love is not love Which alters when it alteration finds‚ Or bends with the remover to remove: O no! it is an ever-fixed mark That looks on tempests and is never shaken; It is the star to every wandering bark‚ Whose worth’s unknown‚ although his height be taken. Love’s not Time’s fool‚ though rosy lips and cheeks Within his bending sickle’s compass come: Love alters not with his brief hours and weeks‚ But bears it out

This poem is a traditional sonnet‚ with the first eight lines‚ an octave‚ showing the dark‚ depressing mood of the speaker. Suddenly

    Marriage in “The Wife of Bath’s Tale” by Geoffrey Chaucer and “The Flea” by John Donne In this paper I will compare the approach to marriage in the works “The Wife of Bath’s Tale” by Geoffrey Chaucer and “The Flea” by John Donne; in both cases it is a means to an end: in the first the old woman wants to get “the thing that most of all Women desire” and in the second the lover seeks “How little which his lover (thou) deniest him (me)” and uses an allusion to marriage to achieve this.
