    Poems used: John Keats’ ’On the Sonnet’ 1848 If by dull rhymes our English must be chained‚  And‚ like Andromeda‚ the Sonnet sweet  Fettered‚ in spite of painéd loveliness;  Let us find out‚ if we must be constrained‚  Sandals more interwoven and complete  To fit the naked foot of poesy;  Let us inspect the lyre‚ and weigh the stress  Of every chord‚ and see what may be gained  By ear industrious‚ and attention meet;  Misers of sound and syllable‚ no less  Than Midas of his coinage‚

    at this question‚ it is my opinion that it is arousing a discussion of the self-denial that religion imposes and also the conflict it imposes on the self.
