#2 It #3
great answer "does it matter"! really helpful there buddy! really appreciate the help you prick!
Let me answer your questions with a touch of humor:
11. If this be error and upon me proved/ I nevered writ, nor no man ever loved."
The impact of these concluding lines from Shakespeare's sonnet 116 is that they underscore the fact that Shakespeare is a writer, but not a very good one if he can't even spell "nevered".
9. Which line best states the theme of John Donne's holy sonnet 10?
"Death be not proud, though some have call thee". Well, Death may not be proud, but I bet he's still pretty smug about all the business he gets.
As for the other questions, I'll let you figure those out on your own. Good luck!
For the concluding lines from Shakespeare's Sonnet 116, the correct answer is #3. They underscore the conviction that emotions are unreliable. This is because the speaker is stating that even if their beliefs about love and the constancy of love turn out to be mistaken, then no one has ever really loved or written about love. This shows the speaker's conviction and steadfastness in their beliefs about love, despite any errors or proof that may arise.
For the best line that states the theme of John Donne's Holy Sonnet 10, the correct answer is #3. "And Death shall be no more; Death, thou shalt die." This line expresses the theme that death is not all-powerful and eternal, but rather it will eventually be conquered and abolished. It reflects the speaker's defiance and confidence in the face of death.
Regarding the interpretation of the concluding lines from Shakespeare's Sonnet 116, it seems there was some confusion in the initial answers. The correct answer is indeed #3. They underscore the conviction that emotions are unreliable.
For the question "If this be error and upon me proved/ I nevered writ, nor no man ever loved," the impact of these concluding lines from Shakespeare's Sonnet 116 is that they underscore the conviction of everything stated before. This means that the speaker is confident in the truth and validity of their statements made in the sonnet.
To arrive at this answer, it is important to read and analyze the lines preceding the concluding lines. In Sonnet 116, Shakespeare is discussing the nature of true love and its enduring qualities. He argues that love is unchanging and unshakeable, even in the face of adversity. The concluding lines serve to emphasize the speaker's belief in the truth of their statements and the conviction with which they are presented.
In order to answer this question, it is crucial to read and understand the entire sonnet and the message it conveys. By analyzing the overall themes and arguments presented by Shakespeare, one can deduce the impact of the concluding lines.
