Answer:

A: There is a shift in topic.

B: There is a stanza break.

Explanation:

Sonnet 18 is a Shakespearean sonnet which consists of 14 lines of iambic pentameter (three quatrains which are followed by a couplet). The rhyme scheme is also characteristic of Shakespearean sonnet: ABAB CDCD EFEF GG.

In the sonnet, the speaker compares a young man to a sunny day, noting that the qualities of summer weather will eventually change.

In the third quatrain, the speaker interrupts this comparison, while the use of word <em>'but'</em> marks the shift in topic. The speaker then introduces a new idea and claims that the man will live forever in this sonnet.
