alive is not easy. One knows that life eventually comes to an end‚ but does love? Time passes and days must end. It is in "Sonnet 18"‚ by Shakespeare‚ that we see a challenge to the idea that love is finite. Shakespeare shows us how some love is eternal and will live on forever in comparison to a beautiful summer ’s day. Shakespeare has a way of keeping love alive in "Sonnet 18"‚ and he uses a variety of techniques to demonstrate how love is more brilliant and everlasting than a summer ’s day. The

Sonnet 1‚ by W. Shakespeare From fairest creatures we desire increase‚ That thereby beauty’s rose might never die‚ But as the riper should by time decease‚ His tender heir might bear his memory: But thou‚ contracted to thine own bright eyes‚ Feed’st thy light’s flame with self-substantial fuel‚ Making a famine where abundance lies‚ Thyself thy foe‚ to thy sweet self too cruel.

Ethan A. Proffitt ENG 243 Phil Ferguson 11-17-14 Sonnet 130 William Shakespeare’s 130th sonnet is perhaps the most intriguing and conceptually bizarre.

The opening sentence ‘Am I thus conquer’d?’ sets a disparaging tone immediately and this escalates as Wroth continues to use rhetorical interrogatives throughout the poem. Perhaps the most notable example
