Question

What distinct quality does the speaker attribute to his beloved’s face in this excerpt from William Shakespeare’s Sonnet 93?

Answer 1

Answer:

2.

Explanation:

Sonnet 93 is the continuation of the Sonnet 92, written by William Shakespeare. This sonnet is about the pretension of love, by the speaker's lover. The sonnet starts with the speaker stating that he will live supposing that the love of his lover is true, when it is not. He will accept like a deceived husband that his lover loves him, but he knows that her love is changed now,

"...so love's face

May still seem love to me, though altered new;"

The lover seems to be looking at him but her thoughts and heart is somewhere else.

Since, the lover is good at pretending her love. She is able to show by her expressions that she loves the speaker. She is good at showing her love on her face.

"That in thy face sweet love should ever dwell;"

So, the quality attributed to the lover's face in this sonnet is that she is good in expressing her emotions.

Answer 2

Hello,

Well, I believe that the answer is 2) She can express her emotions very well.
I think this because in the sentence "In many's looks, the false heart's history" and "May still seem love to me, though altered new;
Thy looks with me, thy heart in other place"

These both show how she feel and her emotions. 

Hope this helps
