Renassiance Sonnets

1.) The rhyme scheme Spencer uses is way different from Shakespeare. His rhyme scheme goes ABABBCBCCDCDEE, Which basically mean his rhyme is constant. He uses more words that rhyme and he don’t skip around a lot, and I think that is harder than the way Shakespeare writes his. Shakespeare style has fewer complexes it doesn’t use many rhyming words like Spencer. His rhyme scheme is basically ABABCDCDFFEFGG, Which mean he don’t rhyme much and he don’t bring rhymes from his first set into his second like Spencer do. If I had to choose between the two I would choose Shakespeare because his rhyme scheme is not as complicated also like the was his writing is more easier to understand and I know what points he are making from beginning to end.

2.) The first point in Shakespeare he is asking should he compare the person he talking about in the poem to a summer’s day. He’s saying she is more lovely and calm than a summer’s day. He also is saying that good things don’t always happen in the summer because in the summer rough winds shake the buds of May and last but not least the summer day don’t last long. The second point he is talking about how the summer can be to hot and how it can dim the complexion of the person he is talking. I like the last part of this section when he says "And every fair from fair sometimes declines" This is saying everything that looks beautiful is not always beautiful, and I really like that quote. The very last line states that beauty can be destroyed by nature or chance. In the third and last section he is basically saying even if the summer fade away the way he feels about her will still be in this poem foe others to read. In the second poem by Spencer, in the first section he comparing his self with a girl he likes. He said he is ice and she is like fire. In the second part is talking about how hot she is but that even though she is hot her beauty is not actually touching him. The third part talk about how her beauty is melting him. And the last part says how powerful is love.
