.... love you more than me. In my heart I carry you and the essence of love, In its pure and simple form. All I have to offer you is me and my love, Though both are simple I promise they are true. Even as I write this, I think of how to describe to you. Something I hardly understand, But I must tell you how I feel. So I close my eyes, And let my heart guide my hand. Perhaps the tears that falls from my eyes, Will show you my love and how much it means to me. To me our love is everything. I believe love will find it's way and show us the answers .....

.... the works of the Negro by using the terms "slave," "worker," "singer," and "victims" (4, 7, 10, and 14). The first example is a situation that has taken place in Africa; the second in the United States. Finally, Hughes uses repetition of the first and last stanza to conclude his poem. To thoroughly understand the point that Hughes is making, one must take an enhanced inspection at certain elements that Hughes uses throughout the poem. In "Negro", Hughes gives the reader a compact visual exposé of the historical life of blacks. He does not tell the reader in detail about what has happened to blacks; therefore, Hughes allows these actual ac .....

.... 38) switches to a tone full of hope and faith. In Bradstreet’s first stanza she speaks of how she went to bed and regrets of not looking more clearly before “rest she took�(ln 1). She is awaken by shrieks of fire that is not aroused by any man. As she sees the light of the fire at the beginning of stanza two, she comes to a sharp realization about what is happening and says a quick prayer to God to save her comfort, and what, at the time, she considers her “life�. As she leaves her house in stanza three, taking one last look she realizes that all that was giving to her from God and now he takes what belongs to him. Stanza four .....

.... points this out to the Shepherd in her reply and jokingly refuses him her love. The themes of age, weather and the seasons, and materialism all appear in the two poems. Though, both authors use them differently to show how love should be attained. Love should be attained by use of the heart. This theory is the premise of Christopher Marlowe's "The Passionate Shepherd to His Love." The Shepherd in his poem offers the world to his Love and everything with it. He is an old man and hopes to win the girl's heart. Notice the word ‘hopes.' If these delights thy mind may move, Then live with me and be my lov .....

.... what he held as an unnecessary encounter. However, to understand the contrasts between his first, then ultimately conclusive belief, one must delve into his earlier works. In the first poem of "Drum Taps", "First O Songs For A Prelude" the poem indicates to the reader that Whitman is staunchly enthusiastic towards the first battle: The tumultuous escort, the ranks of policemen preceding, clearing the way, The unpent enthusiasm, the wild cheers of the crowd for their favorites…War! Be it weeks, months, or years, an arm'd race is advancing to welcome it. As we can see, like most Americans, Whitman was proud of the engagements to .....

.... Wine�. I see the “Curious Wine� as wealth, in terms of money. This is due to many reasons, one being that wine as an intoxicating effect on people; as does money. Wine is also a drink of richer people, who would (in most cases) have more money then her. Also because wine is curious, in flavor as well as in its bubbly ways, as money is to those that do not have it. In the second stanza it seems she speaks of what she was thinking as she touched the “Curious Wine� “’Twas this on Tables I had seen� tells of how she had seen wealth often, so her hunger was not for the unknown but the inexperienced. “Windows� tells of how she .....

.... and jumping with friends all around I was but a child with nothing to hide But now that I look he's nowhere to be found Now I wonder what's to become of me The future is uncertain and clouded People tell me that I soon will see That my eyes will no longer be shrouded In my youth I was my own guide But now i'm an adult along for the ride .....

.... sixties. Hecht's view might have been that women could have equality to men, but its not important enough to let them talk about it. His display of faithfulness in the women's unfaithfulness is also a reaction to the Victorian idea that the wife should be there for her husband. It could also be a scary reality in Hecht's mind that times were changing and women wouuld not be at every beaconing call of their husband. Hecht reinforces his Ideas of change by taking Arnold's "...the cliffs of England stand, glimmering and vast" and transforms the Victorian idea of women into "...cliffs of England crumbling away behind them,". This supports the idea th .....

.... seriously, in attempt to convince his mistress. The relaxed tone of “To the Virgins, to Make Much of Time� and serious tone of “To His Coy Mistress� point out the difference in the way the writers feel about their characters. Both poems are directed to two different audiences. In “To the Virgins, to Make Much of Time� Herrick is speaking to all virgins. He never addresses anybody personally. In “To His Coy Mistress� Marvell is addressing his mistress personally. He wrote the poem for his mistress to convince her to become intimate with him. The difference makes a change because now Herrick’s poem affects the reader (depending on i .....

.... my principle sources of pleasure. To those who have cherished an affection for a faithful and sagacious dog. I need hardly be at the trouble of explaining the nature or the intensity of the gratification thus derivable. There is something in the unselfish and self-sacrificing love of a brute, which goes directly to the heart of him who has had a frequent occasion to test the paltry friendship and gossamer fidelity of mere Man ( The Black Cat 80) This citation I just went over shows how he loves his animals, but it also shows how he is foreshadowing. How he love the animals as pals, but how he also loves to abuse the animals. He loves to inflict pai .....
