On the summer afternoon of our tale a small round table, as black as ebony, stood in the centre of the room, sustaining a cut-glass vase of beautiful form and elaborate workmanship. The sunshine came through the window, between the heavy festoons of two faded damask curtains, and fell directly across this vase; so that a mild splendor was reflected from it on the ashen visages of the five old people who sat around. Four champagne glasses were also on the table.

To give the old friends the magical water.

Answer: Option A.

<u>Explanation:</u>

The story "Dr. Heidegger's Experiment" which has been written by Nathaniel Hawthorne, shows the five friends, who are experimenting on a water that can make these friends young again. This regaining of youth is to be tested on the four friends by the host and the doctor.

Based on the excerpt from the story, we can see that the doctor had called them to test the water of the fountain of youth. It is his intention of doing his real experiment on the old friends, to give them the magical water. He tried it first, on a dried rose before doing it on them own, then they immediately asked for it to be given to them. He had called his old friends so that he will be able to test out his experiment on them, and they sure did help him.

Answer:

A) to give the old friends the magical water.

Explanation:

Dr. Heidegger has asked the old friends to his study to give the old friends the magical water. Dr. Heidegger is not going to experiment on himself; therefore there is only four glasses. The reflection of the light through the vase onto the faces of the old friends foreshadows this experiment.

Read William Shakespeare’s Sonnet 18. Note that it is divided into three quatrains followed by a concluding couplet. Which two s
nordsb [41]

The ninth line of the sonnet brings in a major change of tone. Shakespeare jumps on elaborating the immortality of his lover rather than continuing the criticism of the sun.  Moreover, the limitations of nature are replaced by his lover’s thoughts and he claims that his darling is not bounded by the rules that are being displayed.

In line-4, the summer is stated as ”eternal summer”, since it keeps returning every year. And noticing from the previous personifications employed in the sonnet, we can easily recognize the similarity between “summer’s day” and “thee”. Both can be eternal or can fade with time. This is the major reason why the author takes a turn on line-9, as both of them have only one threat-time; and the third force that can eternalize them both is the poetry that the author has created.

To conclude, we can easily notice the turn in topic and breaking of the stanza.
