Answer: Time gone by .

Explanation:

Shakespeare's Sonnet 106 is a poem from<em> the Fair Youth sequence</em>, in which the author praises the youth. The meaning of the phrase <em>"wasted time"</em> is, in this context, <em>the time that is spent, that has passed</em>. The poet realizes that, when he explores the descriptions of beautiful people made by other poets in the past, these poets were alluding to the same kind of beauty he sees in contemporary people.

What is the poem The Courtin' about
Annette [7]
The use of contractions and colloquial 'slang' implies a writer, or persona adopted by the writer, that doesn't have a great deal in the ways of education, he/she appears to be writing things as they are said rather than how we as an audience know them to be spelt. This can be shown by quoting any contraction or wherever there's an amendment to the text, for example "hender" instead of "hinder".
