When doing something like this, some find it useful to annotate the text by putting in notes and explanations of what is being said.
(Like pastors at a church when giving the message, or a comedian needing to remember some little things)
It basically just helps the reader not forget side notes or little things that can make the others either more entertained or more helpful.
Simple present tense of the verb adds 's' or 'es' or 'ies' to the end of the verb.
Such as: Joseph enjoy<u>s</u> cooking dinner. OR Mary miss<u>es</u> her parents. OR Tommy cr<u>ies</u> when he is sad.
Hi there!
Even though this question was submitted a week ago, I'd love to give pointers to those that may stumble upon this question asking for help.
A thesis statement is basically stating what your whole essay is about, and is based on your opinion. It's usually located at the end of your opening paragraph, and is short, sweet, and straight to the point (being a sentence long). When drafting your thesis statement, keep in mind the three, or two, ideas that you wrote about or are writing about in your body paragraphs. A thesis statement is kind of like paraphrasing, just making your main ideas of the body paragraphs provable.
Your thesis statement can, and is reccommended to be restated in your closing paragraph. When restating your thesis statement, I don't recommend to use the same exact sentence- change it up a bit.
An example of a thesis statement;
Peanut butter and jelly sandwiches are the best type of sandwich because they are versatile, easy to make, and taste good.
This means that my essay is focused on proving that PB&J is the best type of sandwich. My body paragraphs will be about it's versatility, how it's easy to make, and it's taste.
Hoping I helped some!

Explanation:
T.S. Eliot's "The Love Song of J. Alfred Prufrock" is a poem that deals with the themes of alienation, isolation amidst the tortured psyche of the modern man and his 'overconfidence' life. This modernism poem is from the speaker, Alfred Prufrock's perspective, delving into his love life and his need or desire to consummate his relationship with the lover.
An allusion is one literary device that writers use to provide details in their work. It makes reference to other pieces or works in this description. And two instances of biblical allusion are found in the lines <em>"I am no prophet"</em> and <em>"To say: To say: “I am Lazarus, come from the dead".</em> The first "prophet" allusion is about John the Baptist whose head was cut off and brought on a platter on the request of Herodias's daughter to Herod (Matthew 14, Mark 6). And the second allusion is to Lazarus, whom Jesus raised from the grave/ dead (John 11).
