Answer:

Quatrain.

Explanation:

The given lines are from William Shakespeare's "Sonnet 116". The sonnet is a definition of what love is and what it is not. It presents the different qualities of love, and how it is not defined or confined by time.

Sonnets are primarily written in appreciation of love. And in the given lines which constitute the third quatrain of the sonnet, the poet talks of how "love's not Time's fool [.....] alters not with his brief hours and weeks". Rather, it pours forth till "the edge of doom", without any limitations.

A quatrain is a poem where a stanza has four lines written in iambic pentameter. And Shakespeare's sonnets have four quatrains and a couplet, meaning there are three stanzas with four lines and a two-lined stanza in the end which is called the couplet. And the particular rhyme scheme in this sonnet is the couplet form.

Read the excerpt from Their Eyes Were Watching God. Mrs. Turner, like all other believers had built an altar to the unattainable

motikmotik

Their Eyes Were Watching God is the best known novel of author Zora Neale Hurston and it was published in 1937.

This excerpt is a critique of the prevailing racial attitudes of the time. Mrs. Turner, a Christian believer, would equate everything that was godly and sacred with caucasian characteristics, including the major characters in the Bible. In practice, this not only meant that black features were seen as less desirable and less "holy," but it also reminds us of the fact that slavery and racism were often justified and legitimized through religion.

Tatiana [17]

One of these is a fragment. And that's #15. "Rotating back and forth aimlessly." Do you see how that sentence doesn't have a subject? We have no idea WHAT is "rotating back and forth aimlessly." The others, #16 and #17, both have a subject and a verb. They're all sentences
