What is the central idea of the sonnet?

English
1 answer:
Ann [662]2 years ago
6 0

Answer:

The speaker wants his muse to help him immortalize his love.

Explanation:

William Shakespeare wrote many of his poems in the form of a sonnet. In total, he wrote 154 sonnets using the form which we now refer to as the Shakespearean sonnet. It consists of three quatrains and a couplet, its rhyme scheme is<em> abab cdcd efef gg</em>, and the lines are written in a meter called the iambic pentameter.

In Sonnet 100, the speaker speaks to his muse, asking her to help him immortalize his love. He scolds her for leaving him, asking her to rise and return to him. He needs her help. He wants to immortalize his love through poetry, to create something that will remain even after he passes. We can see this in the following line: <em>Give my love fame faster than Time wastes life.</em>

Write the plural for each noun. 1. pet = <br>2. box=<br>3.egg=<br>4.dish=<br>5.glass=<br>6.lunch=​
natali 33 [55]

Answer:

1. pets

2. boxes

3. dishes

4. glasses

6. lunches

Explanation:

When there is a plural of a word, it means there is multiple of it. We can write a plural with a s at the end, however when you write a plural, interpret it to make sure it makes sense.

For example, dishs does not look right or make sense, so we can add an es, instead of an s.

Why is it important to remain mature at all times? (3 paragraph minimum.)
GrogVix [38]
Being mature is very important in life. First of all it’s a key component in getting into a good job. Let’s your in a job interview and someone rips there shirt. Obviously you would wanna laugh but the person doing the interview is gonna look at you and think how ignorant that was of you.

Next, people’s feelings. This may not sound like a big deal but don’t you just hate when you get made fun of! So let’s say someone accidentally falls and you laugh. That’s very immature of you and the persons feelings are gonna obviously be hurt. Now everyone around you is gonna think your rude. This could end up in you losing a lot of friends.

Lastly, being mature is gonna help you succeed at life in general. If your 40 and your still laughing at ignorant,rude,un mature jokes trust me your not gonna really get anywhere in life. Everyone is gonna see you as this stupid ignorant person that laughs or is rude about everything.
