Appendix Sonnet 18 Shakespeare 1 Shall I compare thee to a summer’s day? 2 Thou art more lovely and more temperate: 3 Rough winds do shake the darling buds of May‚ 4 And summer’s lease hath all too short a date: 5 Sometime too hot the eye of heaven shines‚ 6 And often is his gold complexion dimmed‚ 7 And every fair from fair sometime declines‚ 8 By chance‚ or nature’s changing course untrimmed: 9 But thy eternal summer shall not fade‚ 10 Nor lose possession of that fair thou owest‚

Overall‚ Sonnet 116 is in The Cannon because it is a well-written‚ influential poem that Shakespeare created to formally declare the definition of love. While I am particularly partial to poems‚ Frankenstein is an exceptional example of a novel that demonstrates what was important during the time it was written. Frankenstein follows the story of an eccentric scientist‚ Victor Frankenstein‚ who creates a destructive‚ vindictive being that destroys everything Victor cares about. Mary Shelley‚ throughout

distant–or is not believed in‚ people try to fill this ache through other means‚ namely each other. What is then found is an idealized love--created by people--which mimics the love of God but focuses on the satisfaction of the individual. Shakespeare’s “Sonnet 116” represents this secular vision of ideal love‚ but as Benedict XVI reveals in “God is Love‚” it is ultimately only a shadowy‚ reflected image of God’s passion that cannot be fully manifested amongst sinful people. When conjuring an image

Born in 1770 in the beautiful countryside of the north of England‚ Wordsworth often wrote of his deep love of nature and the countryside; in this sonnet‚ however‚ he recalls a moment when he and his sister Dorothy travelled to London and walked across Westminster Bridge in the early morning‚ before most people were awake. It is interesting that even when in the middle of England’s biggest city he still compares what he can see with the hills and valleys of his home countryside in the Lake District

idealistic war sonnets written during the First World War and his boyish good looks‚ which prompted the Irish poet William Butler Yeats to describe him as “the handsomest young man in England”.

The idea that to be human is to experience the paradox of love and war is also explored in this poem. Barrett Browning delves deeply into the love side of this statement‚ although it is clear the persona is also undergoing an internal battle. The octet in ‘Sonnet 14’ describes the qualities that will fade over time‚ such as her smile‚ her looks and her voice. Her beauty and

for term of life your art assured me. The previous sentence was taken from Shakespeare’s sonnet #92 which was modernized to today’s use of language. Sonnet #92‚ by Shakespeare describes his feelings towards the person he holds deeply‚ happy that he was able to have loved them that he was willing to accept death.
