We are presented with a libertine speaker talking of many lovers. He suggests that, though he has spoken about the pain of love, it is only ‘Love’s pleasures’ that he cares about. As such, he has ‘betrayed’ ‘a thousand beauties’. He claims to have been a callous and deceiving lover, telling ‘the fair’ about the ‘wounds and smart’ they long to hear of, then ‘laughing’ and leaving. The poem is written in three elegant septets. Notice the iambic tetrameter and consider how important form might be to the theme of this particular kind of love and betrayal.
This speaker may not be entirely honest. The final stanza begins with ‘Alone’. Is there any sense of regret here? The speaker claims to be ‘Without the hell’ of love, yet in the same line we find reference to the ‘heaven of joy’. He may even also sacrificed his joy with his promiscuous love.
That's more of a personal essay question. We're not going to write that for you. Pick a hobby, like reading, sports, video games, etc. that you normally do when you're finished with school work.
Answer:
REALISTIC FICTION is a genre consisting of stories that could have actually occurred to people or animals in a believable setting. These stories resemble real life and fictional characters within these stories react similarly to real people.
Answer: Language
Explanation:
The divide between the Flemish Belgians and the French Belgians seems to stem from language. The Flemish have their own side of Belgium where street signs are in Flemish and the French Belgians have the same in their side of Belgium.
This situation where both languages are spoken has led to both cultures experiencing a divide with one side espousing the need to speak one language and the other side doing the same. If they spoke the same language, there would be no divide - all else being equal - because they would integrate more.
