true love is the partnership of two thinking, willing individuals, who aren't simply driven by emotions or hormones. -real love doesn't change ("alter") under different circumstances. That is to say, even if the lovers themselves change, or if the world around them does, true love remains constant. - What does "bends with the remover to remove" mean? Basically, it makes the above point even more vehemently, claiming that even when someone tries to "remove" affection, real love doesn't give in and disappear. Faced with difficulties or adversity, love will always survive -ever-fixed mark", . saying that it weathers storms ("tempests") but is never disturbed. -the "ever-fixed mark" that came up in line 5 is a star - not just any old star, but the North Star, the only one that never changes position in the night sky. -Love isn't a court jester that panders to the will of Time, despite the fact that the "rosy lips and cheeks" of a loved one may fade as they age -the edge of doom," otherwise known as Judgment Day, the end of time, or whatever you want to call it.

-Raleigh makes particular use of assonance and alliteration. The line has four beats. The first three of the beats fall on words that share a hard e vowel sound: "these"/"me"/"means."

This means that any "if" statement indicates that the conditions are only possible, that they are not representative of reality. That Raleigh begins the poem with this word suggests that many of the conditions that follow are unreal things, which creates a tone of uncertainty or, possibly, mockery. —The "pretty pleasures" —The phrase "might me move," with its dense alliteration and playfully unusual syntax, creates a tone that matches the sentiment of the line. The phrase is excessively sweet, —Once again, Raleigh twists the imagery in Marlowe's poem.

-Visual imagery of the nature -smell imagery from flowers/posies/roses -title is carpe diem: love in a simple, rural setting. Urges people to enjoy the moment without worrying about the future. -The tone is desperate, pleading, sincere, and passionate because he is trying to win over the heart of his love. -"The Shepherd swains shall dance and sing," (line 25). The alliteration adds emphasis to the poet's points. Marlowe uses alliteration to emphasize how happy he could make his love if she accepts his proposal to live with him. Alliteration: "If these delights thy mind may move." Hyperbole: "A thousand fragrant posies," "As precious as the gods do eat," shows how far he would go to prove his love. Allusion: "Melodious birds sing madrigals," Madrigals are secular poems, usually meant to be sung. Imagery: "Buckles of the purest gold," Trying to appeal to his love's senses by describing the material objects in a majestic way. Irony: The entire poem is irony because a shepherd could never obtain these objects. -An interesting metaphor is the one present in the second stanza: "melodious birds sing madrigals" (l. 9). The musical aspect of the metaphor might also suggest that the poem is a description of a possible wedding. At the same time, the association between a bird's song and a madrigal represents a communion between what is natural and what is made by man. This particular metaphor may also be seen as a personification of the birds. Comparison of birdsong to poems set to music (madrigals).

example of conceit
Conceit: Uses compass as an extended metaphor. Donne compares his relationship with his wife to that of the two legs of a drawing compass. Although the legs are separate components of the compass, they are both part of the same object. The legs operate in unison. If the outer leg traces a circle, the inner leg-though its point is fixed at the center-must pivot in the direction of the outer leg. Thus, Donne says, though he and his wife are separated, like the legs of the compass, they remain united because they are part of the same soul.

Sonnet CXVI: Let me not to the Marriage of True Minds: translated
I hope I may never acknowledge any reason why minds that truly love each other shouldn't be joined together. Love isn't really love if it changes when it sees the beloved change or if it disappears when the beloved leaves. Oh no, love is a constant and unchanging light that shines on storms without being shaken; it is the star that guides every wandering boat. And like a star, its value is beyond measure, though its height can be measured. Love is not under time's power, though time has the power to destroy rosy lips and cheeks. Love does not alter with the passage of brief hours and weeks, but lasts until Doomsday. If I'm wrong about this and can be proven wrong, I never wrote, and no man ever loved.

a valediction: forbidding mourning translated
Just as men of virtue die gently, and whisper to the soul telling it to depart, while some of their sad friends say the last breath has gone, and others say no: Verse 2: Let us, now we are separating, melt and make no noise, without floods of tears or storms of sighs. It would profane our joy to show the uninitiated our love. Verse 3: Earthquakes bring harm and act as portents, and men consider the result and the meaning of them, but oscillations of the celestial spheres though more profound are not felt on earth (innocent). Verse 4: The dull love experienced by lovers in the spheres subject to decay and change, i.e. those below the sphere of the moon, has a soul which is subject to sensation, and cannot tolerate absence, because absence removes the sensory things of which it is composed. Verse 5: But we who are mutually assured of each other, in our minds, by a love which is so refined and spiritual that we can't describe or comprehend it, are less concerned about losing sight and touch of each other. Verse 6: So though I must depart, our two souls, which are as one, do not suffer a separation but an expansion, like gold sheet beaten to an airy thinness. Verse 7: If we can distinguish two souls rather than just one, then they are like the two stiff legs of a pair of compasses. Your soul, the fixed leg, does not try to move, but changes angle as the other leg extends or contracts. Verse 8: And though the fixed leg sits in the centre (of an inscribed arc or circle drawn by the other leg) it still extends its angle and leans down towards the other leg as the other leg is moved outwards, and contracts its angle and rises as the other leg is moved inwards. Verse 9: Just such a fixed leg you will be to me, who will be forced to move obliquely on my travels like the other foot of the compasses, since your constancy will make my path a true circle, and force me to end where I began, with you.

Sonnet CXXX: My Mistress' Eyes are Nothing like the Sun: what is the subject of the poem? summarize the literal meaning of the poem in a few sentences.
My mistress's eyes are nothing like the sun. Coral is much redder than the red of her lips. Compared to the whiteness of snow, her breasts are grayish-brown. Poets describe their mistresses' hair as gold wires, but my mistress has black wires growing on her head. I have seen roses that were a mixture of red and white, but I don't see those colors in her cheeks. And some perfumes smell more delightful than my mistress's reeking breath. I love to hear her speak; yet I know perfectly well that music has a far more pleasant sound. I admit I never saw a goddess walk; when my mistress walks, she treads on the ground. And yet, by heaven, I think my beloved is as special as any woman whom poets have lied about with false comparisons. - says that the whole point of this poem is to push back against standard ways of talking about women in poems. -so far the speaker said that his mistress's eyes aren't that great, that her lips aren't that red, that her skin is yellowish, that her hair is like wires, that her cheeks are nothing like roses, and that her breath reeks. music is more pleasant than her voice. she simplyg walks (probably not likef how a goddess walks). - the speaker thinks that his lover is as wonderful ("rare") as any woman ("any she") who was ever misrepresented ("belied") by an exaggerated comparison ("false compare"). -They drive home the speaker's main point, that unlike other people who write sonnets, he doesn't need flowery terms or fancy comparisons. He can just tell his mistress, plainly and simply, that he loves her for who she is. Awww... basically she's normal and he doesn't need tog write a poem with fancy language because he can just tell her straight up.

what is The Flea about(subject). Speaker and Speaking to?
Speaker: A man Speaking to: his love interest (a girl) Subject/topic: The flea is jumping from one person to the next. the boy gets flea first, then the girl. now thier blood/lives is mingled in the flea. the flea has united them, but the girl doesn't think so. the guy tries to convince her to sleep with him, but she doesn't want to. Her parents are against him and this idea. She's afraid of losing her honor and sinning. He's trying to tell her it's not sinning because their blood is already united. She wants to kill the flea, but he says don't kill it because he says they'll both die too/sin. She squashes the flea. He freaks, she doens't care and we're fine (we didn't die). He says yeah you're right, so your fears were false, so says if you sleep with me you won't lose anything.
symbolism
Symbolism is the practice or art of using an object or a word to represent an abstract idea. An action, person, place, word, or object can all have a symbolic meaning. When an author wants to suggest a certain mood or emotion, he can also use symbolism to hint at it, rather than just blatantly saying it. ex: A rainbow symbolizes hope and good things that are coming in William Wordsworth's
what is a valediction: forbidding mourning (sadness/grief b/c of loss) about?
The speaker explains that he is forced to spend time apart from his lover, but before he leaves, he tells her that their farewell should not be the occasion for mourning and sorrow. In the same way that virtuous men die mildly and without complaint, he says, so they should leave without "tear-floods" and "sigh-tempests," for to publicly announce their feelings in such a way would profane their love. The speaker says that when the earth moves, it brings "harms and fears," but when the spheres experience "trepidation," though the impact is greater, it is also innocent. The love of "dull sublunary lovers" cannot survive separation, but it removes that which constitutes the love itself; but the love he shares with his beloved is so refined and "Inter-assured of the mind" that they need not worry about missing "eyes, lips, and hands."

The Nymph's Reply to the Shepherd paraphrased
This poem is a reply to Marlow's "The Passionate Shepherd to His Love". The lover's sweetheart is presented as a Nymph. The Nymph is a Greek goddess who lives in rivers, tress and hills. She takes the shape of a beautiful young lady. She is an imaginary being which goes with the fancy of the shepherd. She answers the shepherd's demands. She gives a reply to his proposal. Her reply shows that she is smart, far-sighted and wise. She is not fooled by the lover's colorful promises. In the first stanza, she shows that if beauty and emotion did not decline and diminish, she would be affected by his offer and proposal. This shows that she is wise and aware of the mutability of emotion and beauty. Beauty and love don't remain constant. They are transient and changeable. Therefore, she is not convinced of his fanciful and unrealistic offer. She also doubts the sincerity of his emotion and the faithfulness of his speech. The shepherd is accused of telling lies. His promises seems to be too fanciful and unreasonable to persuade his beloved. In the second stanza, she shows that the changing case of nature affects beauty badly. Every beautiful aspect in nature is subject to change and decay. Therefore, she is not to be tempted by transient pleasure. When the winter comes, the shepherds make a fence to keep sheep all together and to protect them from the cold weather. Everything becomes silent and cold. The river floods its banks and overflows with water. The flowers decay and the flourishing, luxuriant fields submit to the change of seasons. The fields lose their beauty and pleasure. This shows that the ravages of time cannot be averted nor held back, that nothing is constant and that all must change with the passing of time. She, then, proceeds to give a dark picture of the rosy future he promises. The wonderful time of May with its joy and pleasure will give way to winter with its gloomy weather. This shows that nature is made of two sides good and bad. In the first poem, he stresses on the good side and overlooks the bad one. His words are sweet, but they are apart from the reality. His heart is full of diseases and evil intentions because his promises are unrealistic and deceitful. He intends to seduce her by his hollow promises. What he says seems very nice for imagination, but it is not realistic. His promises rise from his fancy. They are the product of his imagination. She shows that if she is deceived by his temptation, she will find nothing except sadness, misery and regret. Philomela was a young girl who was raped by her sister's husband, who cut her tongue to prevent her from telling on him. Philomela was turned into a bird according the Greek mythology. This is an allusion to the Shepherd's intention to seduce and rape his beloved. This indicates seduction. Yet, she cannot be easily deceived because she is as intelligent and wise as this man. She is able to take a wise and rational decision concerning her future. She is not naive to be seduced by his playful promises. In the fourth stanza, she goes on showing that his materialistic promises do not persuade her to accept his offer. She shows that his promised gifts can be worn and destroyed. The flowers will became dry and die. The fruit which represents the summer soon rot and decay. She confirms that his promises do not tempt her. The shepherd's words will be of avail, so she cannot accept mere fancy and empty promises. This shows her wisdom. The Nymph ends her words with an angry stipulation in the last stanza. She shows that she can accept his offer if he is able to make love and youth last forever. If he manages to keep these pleasure from decay and decline, she may accept his offer.

When I'm in disgrace with everyone and my luck has deserted me, I sit all alone and cry about the fact that I'm an outcast, and bother God with useless cries, which fall on deaf ears, and look at myself and curse my fate, wishing that I had more to hope for, wishing I had this man's good looks and that man's friends, this man's skills and that man's opportunities, and totally dissatisfied with the things I usually enjoy the most. Yet, as I'm thinking these thoughts and almost hating myself, I happen to think about you, and then my condition improves—like a lark at daybreak rising up and leaving the earth far behind to sing hymns to God. For when I remember your sweet love, I feel so wealthy that I'd refuse to change places even with kings. -having a bad day. wishing that you had another man's good looks, friends, skills, and his opportunities. disastified with things you usually enjoy. to fell better when he's hating himself, he thinks about the person he loves and it cheers him up, so he would neverf wanttog changef spotsd ieth even the wealthiest men in he world.
