Answer:

Since then - 'tis Centuries - and yet

Feels shorter than the Day

Explanation:

A paradox is a self-contradictory statement to one's investigation that was found true. So an example would be save money by spending it. This is not the same as saving money TO spend it, because you're doing it for a reason. Saving money by spending would mean that you're not actually saving money, therefore you contradict yourself.

I chose these lines because they author is basically saying that it's been centuries since then, but it actually feels like it's been a shorter period.

Past simple Regular verbs exercises
Studentka2010 [4]

Answer:

<u>- ied:</u> cry, enjoy, bury, marry

<u>-ed only</u>: label, wait, stay, explain, fail, prefer

<u>- d only:</u> care, like, agree, use

<u>double consonant +- ed </u>: stop, jog, clap, hop

Explanation:

We form regular Past Simple verb forms by adding the termination <em>-ed </em>to the infinitive of the verb.

e.g. wait, stay, explain

However, there are some exceptions, as the result of the spelling rules.

If the verb ends in <em>-e</em>, we will add the termination <em>-d</em>:

e.g. care, like, use

If the verb ends in a vowel and a consonant, we double the consonant before <em>-ed</em>:

eg. stop, clap, hop

If the verb ends in consonant and <em>-y</em>, we take off the y and add <em>-ied</em>.

e.g.  cry, enjoy, marry
