The correct answer is three quatrains and a couplet.


There are different types of sonnets, the most famous ones being the Italian (Petrarchan) and the English (Shakespearean) sonnets. Shakespearean sonnets, like Italian ones, also have 14 lines, but they are distributed differently. Unlike the Italian sonnet, which consists of an octave (8 lines) and a sestet (6 lines), Shakespearean sonnet contains three quatrains (3 x 4 lines) and a couplet (2 lines) to conclude the poem.

Shakespearean sonnets are organized in three quatrains and one couplet. A quatrain is a stanza consisting of 4 lines, and a couplet has two lines only. This means that the entire sonnet has 14 lines.

<u>Answer:</u>

The correct answer option is 'participial phrase'.

<u>Explanation:</u>

We are given the following sentence:

'The old man sat at the window,<em> remembering the days when he would have gone outdoors</em>'.

Here, the italicized words are an example of participial phrase.

A phrase which looks like a verb but actually functions as an adjective while modifying a noun in the same sentence is called a participial phrase.

So in this sentence, 'remembering' is the present participle and 'remembering the days' is the participial phrase. The participial phrase modifies 'he'.

Artist 52 [7]

Answer:

Why, man, he doth bestride the narrow world

Like a Colossus, and we petty men Walk under his huge legs.

The first sentence questions man's pride, arrogance, using the word Colossus to represent man's thought of himself as being huge and being an very high level. If one bestride the world as a Colossus represents the misuse of one very little power which man often thinks of himself as being extremely powerful and untouchable. In the real sense, the world looks so huge in the worldly realm, which when man acquires a bit of power, he starts to feel as being the most powerful. Petty, describes men as not more than we are ; no matter the worldly power we have, men aren't so special, walking under the legs as the man falls into destruction despite his powers.
