Answer: This is an example of a Shakespearean sonnet because of:
- the abab, cdcd, efef, gg rhyme scheme
- the widespread use of iambic pentameter
- the use of three quatrains followed by a couplet
Explanation:
In 1609, Shakespeare published 154 sonnets, among which is Sonnet 19. The poem deals with the power of time.
This sonnet is representative of a Shakespearean sonnet because:
- It follows the typical the abab, cdcd, efef, gg rhyme scheme
- the widespread use of iambic pentameter (a rhyme scheme in which each line contains ten syllables -five pairs which are called iambs). For instance, <em>"But I forbid thee one more heinous crime." </em>
- the use of three quatrains followed by a couplet. The first twelve lines in a sonnet are divided into three quatrains (each containing 4 lines), followed by a couplet (two lines written in the same rhyme and meter).
Tortoise did not give up as he slowly crawled to the finish line. Rabbit was nowhere to be seen. Maybe he already passed it, maybe he got lost?
