What is the primary purpose of the couplet in this
sonnet?
Where art thou, Muse, that thou forget'st so long
To speak of that which gives thee all thy might?
Spend'st thou thy fury on some worthless song,
Darkening thy power to lend base subjects light?
Return, forgetful Muse, and straight redeem
In gentle numbers time so idly spent;
Sing to the ear that doth thy lays esteem
And gives thy pen both skill and argument.
Rise, restive Muse, my love's sweet face survey,
If Time have any wrinkle graven there;
If any, be a satire to decay,
And make Time's spoils despised every where.
Give my love fame faster than Time wastes life;
So thou prevent'st his scythe and crooked knife.
- "Sonnet 100,
William Shakespeare

The answer
The line of the poem that shows how the speaker wants to change the world is "That all these walls oppression builds / Will have to go!" (Lines 9-10), as shown in option C.
We can arrive at this answer because:
- The speaker shows how the walls are making him uncomfortable.
- This oppresses him and it is an oppression that increases upon him with great influence.
- He realizes that this is not a bad thing and that something must be done to change this situation.
- For that reason, he decides to get up and go to where he can change that situation.
In this case, we can see that the speaker believes that to change the situation in the world, he needs to get up and do something and not wait for someone to solve it.
