Read "Amoretti III: The Sovereign Beauty” by Edmund Spenser. The sovereign beauty which I do admire, Witness the world how worth
y to be praised: The light whereof hath kindled heavenly fire In my frail spirit, by her from baseness raised; That being now with her huge brightness dazed, Base thing I can no more endure to view; But looking still on her, I stand amazed At wondrous sight of so celestial hue. So when my tongue would speak her praises due, It stopped is with thought's astonishment: And when my pen would write her titles true, It ravish'd is with fancy's wonderment: Yet in my heart I then both speak and write The wonder that my wit cannot endite. Which lines from the passage best show a change in central ideas? The sovereign beauty which I do admire, Witness the world how worthy to be praised: That being now with her huge brightness dazed, Base thing I can no more endure to view; But looking still on her, I stand amazed At wondrous sight of so celestial hue. Yet in my heart I then both speak and write The wonder that my wit cannot endite.
