__Rhyme Scheme__- ABAB, CDCD, EFEF, GG. __Simile__- __Metaphor__-"Thou art more lovely and more temperate..." He constantly compares the love of this person to the summer time. __Imagery__- "Sometime too hot the eye of heaven shines..." This is describing the heavens shining (the sun) and comparing it to the feeling of love. __Personification__- "Nor shall Death brag thou wonder'st in his shade..." Shakespeare is personifying Death as somebody who can not brag within this feeling he has. 1) Shakespeare is comparing the feeling of a person with the summer time. He believes that love is stronger and more lovely than a summers day. 2) I think he believes and describes the emotion he feels for this person as lovely. When you think of summer, you usually think of sunny, bright, and happy, but Shakespeare thinks love is more than that. He thinks it's temperate and too hot as well.

__Rhyme Scheme__- ABAB, CDCD, EFEF, GG. __Similie__- __Metaphor-__She is comparing love as something that is not meat, or drink, slumber, roof against the rain, etc. __Imagery__- "Pinned down by pain and moaning for release..." Gives you the image of herself feeling pain because she has not loved yet. __Personification__- "Yet many a man is making friends with death...: She is personifying death as a person, and discussing how men are becoming "friends" with "him." 1) I fine line 5 memorable because it is a very powerful thought about a powerful feeling. "Love can not fill the thickened lung with breath" says to me that either Millay believes love is something less than what you actually need. 2) Love is being compared to the things that are absolutely necissary in life such as food, drinks, sleep, and breathing. Millay is saying Love is not all that you need, unlike the things you need to survive. 4) I believe she has not loved and does not want to because it's something that is not a necessity. She is being pinned down by pain because of this and wants release. 5) I believe that both of these follow a structure of many peoples opinions but in different aspects. Shakespeare's is more of happy and bright, while Millays pulls off a more glum feeling. 6) I believe some people believe in love and find it as a bright feeling, but others have been heartbroken as Millay informed. Shakespeare's Sonnet seems like the feelings of a love blooming and how much he loves this person, while Millays is about the pain of a heartbreak.
 * 2.** Sonnet 30

Love is not a feeling of regret, but a feeling of a smile, when two people have met, and agreed to stay a while. Love is not always going to hold on, but will always be standing next to you, sometimes you'll feel as if you won, others you will lose too. Love has no wings nor can it fly away, but it will leave if you let go, sometimes you'll feel awful, oh you may, so don't take it for granted or put on a show.
