token of that lie thy soul hath spoken!

6.And my soul from out that shadow that lies floating on the floor
I agree with Azharui. Although movie ratings do work as a general advisory and disclaimer, there may still be content that each individual parent might disagree with.

1. English
Edmund Spenser is English. He varied the traditional Shakespearean English sonnet form by changing the rhyme scheme which creates couplet links that connect the quatrains together.

Answer:
The tour guide, who has become a good friend, is great!
Explanation:
The commas help separate the two ideas in one sentence correctly. A good way to check that this is correct is to remove the words separated by the commas - "who has become a good friend" - and check if the sentence still makes sense. In this case it would be "The tour guide is great!" which makes sense as a sentence. Thus, this version of the sentence is correct.
