In <em>Sonnet 130</em>, Shakespeare mocks love sonnets. While other poems exaggerate the imagery to an unbelievable extent, Shakespeare presents a view of a woman that is realistic. Among the descriptions he gives, are the fact that her skin is not as white as the snow, perfumes smell much better, and music sounds much nicer than her speech. The poem, while still romantic, shows that while the woman is not as supernatural as the women of other poems, the writer's love is as strong as any other.

Although it is definitely a love poem, Shakespeare compares his love to an ordinary woman, saying things like her eyes are nothing like the sun.

what was the intended purpose of revolutionary pamphlets and articles, such as Thomas Paine’s Common Sense and “The Crisis, No.
Reil [10]
The intended purpose of pamphlets like Common Sense and The Crisis #1 were to build public opinion for something that was very controversial: American Independence from the British Crown. It is important to remember that many people living in the American colonies considered themselves to be, first and foremost, British.
It was considered treasonous by many in the Colonies to declare the need for independence. There needed to be a publicity campaign to build American support for revolution, and these pamphlets helped to create that debate and convince people of something that was once considered unheard of.

Here, 'float free' is an example of alliteration - <u>f </u>loat <u>f </u>ree - similar sound of initial words. In alliteration, the words of which first letters are repetitive and have a similarity in sound are always consonants.
