In <em>Sonnet 130</em>, Shakespeare mocks love sonnets. While other poems exaggerate the imagery to an unbelievable extent, Shakespeare presents a view of a woman that is realistic. Among the descriptions he gives, are the fact that her skin is not as white as the snow, perfumes smell much better, and music sounds much nicer than her speech. The poem, while still romantic, shows that while the woman is not as supernatural as the women of other poems, the writer's love is as strong as any other.
Answer:
a. Fortunato likes the Montresor family motto.
Explanation:
Edgar Allen Poe's "The Cask of Amontillado" is a short story that is about a revenge attack of a friend against his friend. Montresor had been silently taking in a lot of insults from his friend Fortunato, when he decided it is time to pay back. The short duration of the story tells how he deceived his friend into complying with his plan of revenge.
The given excerpt shows Montresor guiding Fortunato into his family's vaults on the pretext of taking his (Fortunato's) opinion about a wine that he had acquired. Fortunato did not seem to have any ill feeling for his friend's family arms, for he asked about the arms' motto and even exclaimed that the motto <em>"Nemo me impune lacessit"</em> was good. His manner of exclaiming<em> "Good!"</em> with and exclamation mark means that he seems to have no negative thought about it.
I'm pretty sure its a catchy title.
