Today in class, we learned about old English, Middle English, and modern English. We talked about the Shakespeare sonnets which contains quatrains, rhyme couplet, and more. We analyzed “Sonnet 18: Shall I compare thee to a Summers day?”. We all reflected that the poem was about beauty and that beauty isn’t immortal. The poem was modern English, so there were some words that I couldn’t understand. I’m getting better at analyzing poems, it’s still some things I still need to work on.
