In “Sonnet 71,” the speaker urges the beloved to forget about him quickly when he dies. He does not like the idea that remembering him could make his beloved sad someday. However, the speaker is still using the poem as a way to be remembered. In “Sonnet 75,” the speaker discusses writing his beloved’s name and seeing it washed away. One central idea in the poem is that writing might not last, but love will. This is different from the Shakespearean sonnet, where the speaker wants love to fade so that his beloved will not be sad.

Both discuss their love for another; Spenser says his love will outlast the world, while Shakespeare wants to be forgotten in order to spare his love any pain. 

Spenser is trying to immortalize his love, although the waves (or the natural world) wash away his words. The tide says that Spenser is being foolish. However, at the end of the poem, the final couplet adds further meaning: that nothing lasts forever -- except for their love.

Shakespeare's poem is a bit more negative. He says that after his death, his love should not mourn him. Shakespeare says he so loves the subject of the poem that he would rather be forgotten than a source of grief. The couplet adds further meaning to this idea by saying that he doesn't want his love mocked for his grief.

Thus, both poems discuss love and the passage of time; their individual messages differ.

Describe the structure of government under the Articles of Confederation (how many branches ), its strengths , its weaknesses ,
myrzilka [38]

Answer: The national government consisted of a unicameral (one-house) legislature (often called the Confederation Congress); there was no national executive or judiciary. Delegates to Congress were appointed by the state legislatures, and each state had one vote. The Articles of Confederation came into effect on March 1, 1781, after being ratified by all 13 states.

Explanation:

STRENGTH OF ARTICLES OF CONFEDERATION.

(1) The Government successfully waged a war for independence against the British.

(2) The Government successfully negotiated to put an end to the American Revolution in the Treaty of Paris, signed in 1783.

(3) Government granted the free inhabitants of each state “all the privileges and immunities of free citizens in the several states.”

(4) Government established the Departments of Foreign Affairs, War, Marine, and Treasury.

WEAKNESS OF ARTICLE OF CONFEDERATION

(1) One vote was allocated for each state, despite the size of its population.

(2) No national court system was established to protect the rights of U.S. citizens.

(3) No executive branch was established to enforce laws.

(4) Congress had no power to print money, therefore each state developed its own

currency.

(5) Congress was unable to impose taxes; it could only borrow money on credit.
