In other words‚ he used them to show everything that the girl is different in‚ doesn’t have‚ and is flawed in. Shakespeare does this to show that the narrator truly loves the girl

    the speaker says that the birds may sing when the beloved is gone‚ but it is with “so dull a cheer” that the leaves‚ listening‚ become fearful that winter is upon them.
