Hi. Even though you submitted a text, you did not submit any questions about it. This makes it impossible for me to give you an answer. However, I will try to help you by telling you what this text means.

This text is an excerpt from the play "Antigone" and is spoken by Antigone herself, as she explains to Creon why she decided to disobey his orders and bury her brother.

Antigone's brother died a traitor and Creon, the king, forbade anyone to bury him. Anyone who disobeyed him would be sentenced to death. Antigone disobeyed and when she was taken to Creon she told him the words shown in the text above. In these words Antigone claims that she would not defy the king's order for a son or for a husband, because she could have another husband and other children, but she cannot have another brother and so she disobeyed the king. In this moment, Antigone shows how family relationships are important to her.

Shakespeare’s "Sonnet 65" is a meditation on beauty, the inevitability of death, and immortality. Respond to the following quest
timama [110]

If scientists made medicine to live forever with no strings attached then maybe I would take it. It depends on who it is handing me it, If it was a bad person then no but if they were good people then maybe, I would only do it if my parents told me to. Did you know Sonnet 65 is by William Shakespeare and is one of several poems that discusses time, aging, and what writing can and cannot do to fight against these forces? Shakespeare's central theme is the opposition between the transitory, delicate nature of beauty and the devastating effect on the beauty of mortality and its principal instrument, time. The opening questions seem rhetorical, indirectly arguing the poet's conviction that beauty is no match for aging and death. Again I wouldn't know what to do if doctors or scientists gave me random medicine then I don't know. I know if the medicine was important then my parents would give it to me not random scientists.
