    protagonists will share at the end of the play. Shakespeare uses dramatic irony to emphasise the loss that these two share and in turn play to the audiences curiosity. Despite this many readers rarely realise that the prologue is in fact written in sonnet form; consisting of 14 lines‚ iambic pentameter and a rhyming couplet at the last line written. The structure may connote not only the strong love that both Romeo and Juliet share for one another but also perhaps the love of constantly attempting

    Jane’s thoughts of the relationship one has with God relate to the form of upbringing that she has received from her Aunt’s household. She talks of her understandings of religion but does not address God himself. In comparison‚ Donne’s ‘Holy Sonnet No 14’ shows a detached tone in a religious address. A typical association with prayer is that of formality and reverence. Donne has a control over his poem in terms of form and structure in that he uses a combination of the Italian

    ’Both these poems are love poems with a twist.’ Do you agree? ’i wanna be yours’ by Cooper Clarke and ’Stop all the Clocks’ by Auden are both unusual romantic poems. To judge whether they’re both love poems‚ and if so‚ if they have a twist‚ we’d have to analyse classical love poetry. Cooper Clarke wrote ’i wanna be yours’ in the 1980s for a ’punk’ audience (being a self-proclaimed punk poet). The poem is intentionally mocking of the blossoming consumerist culture that valued possession over emotion
