Answer:

1. In context, the question in line 5 ("Why write... ever the same") conveys the speaker's

(E) disgust with his inability to write in a more polished, conventional poetic form.

Explanation:

Line 5 of Sonnet 76 was authored by William Shakespeare and published in 1609.  The line conveys the speaker's frustration that he was always speaking on the same subject of love and too often with words that are easily recognizable as his because of their literary features.  Sonnet 76 is titled "Why is my verse so barren of new pride," depicting a fruitless womb.  But we know that the words of the acclaimed wordsmith have remained prolific ever since.  Instead, like the poet, we realize that the description of love remains the same since time immemorial because love has no duplicates or counterfeits.
