Romeo and Juliet contains several sonnets, a traditional form of poetry comprised of fourteen rhyming lines, usually about love. Shakespeare himself wrote sonnets, as did most of the major poets of his day. Shakespeare uses the language of Petrarch's sonnets to show Romeo's growing maturity as a lover. Shakespeare's sonnets are composed of 14 lines, and most are divided into three quatrains and a final, concluding couplet, rhyming. Many later Renaissance English writers used this sonnet form, and Shakespeare did so particularly inventively. His sonnets vary its configurations and effects repeatedly

PLEASE HELP ME !!!!!!!

pickupchik [31]

I believe from what I see that every sentence has been turned from present tense to past tense. One example could be Number 5- Instead of, 'Peter is going to take the package later.", it could be in past tense, as in Peter already took the package- "Later, Peter took the package."

Hope this helped. Let me know if you have any more questions!
