The lines “ my mistress’ eyes are nothing like the sun; / Coral is far more red than her lips’ red; / If snow be white, why then

her breasts are dun; / If hairs be wires, black wires grow on her head” employ a humor device.
the lines “ i have seen roses damasked, red and white, / But no such roses see i in her cheeks; / And in some perfumes is there more delight / Than in the breath that from my mistress reeks” employ a humor device.

identify the device used and discuss its effect on the meaning and tone of the poem.

Alex787 [66]

After reading the myth of Pandora's box, we can discuss the characters and their traits and actions in the following manner:

  1. Zeus is similar to humans in the sense that he is resentful. We expect gods to be above such petty feelings and be forgiving, but that is not the case. When Zeus tells Hephaestus to create Pandora, his purpose is to torment the humankind.
  2. Pandora's defining trait is curiosity, which is why she ends up opening the box. If she had not been curious, the whole plot would not have developed. Pandora must open the box to unleash evils upon the earth.
  3. The fact that Hope is the last thing that comes out of the box shows that, no matter how bad things can get, people will always have hope to hold on to.

<h3>Who is Pandora?</h3>

Pandora is a character belonging to Greek mythology. She would be the one responsible for the evils that ravage our world. According to the story, those evils were stored in a box, which was opened by Pandora.

Even though the purpose of the story is to blame Pandora, a woman, for the problems of the world, it is important to keep in mind that she was set up for failure.

Pandora was created to be curious and then given a box which she was told not to open. Had the gods truly intended for the box to remain closed, they would not have trusted it to a curious person.
