Compare millay’s poem to shakespeare’s sonnet 130 in terms of time period, imagery, and diction. compare millay’s poem to shakespeare’s sonnet 130 in terms of time period, imagery, and diction.

Both poems express what love is not loveliever than by using imagery involving nature and vivid word choices.

Although being written centuries apart from one another they have many similarities when portraying their thoughts about love. For example, while Millay states that her love is not more beautiful than small white poppies, Shakespeare states that his love is not a goddess but an ordinary woman.

Both authors use poetic language and carefully chosen diction. Millay continuously uses archaic words and carefully chosen expressions for both their sound and meaning as we can appreciate through the line ''lovelier than lilacs'' which is exactly what Shakespeare intended when wording the line ''day by day unto his draught of delicate poison add him one drop more''.

Hope this helps!

it is the background information on the characters and setting explained at the beginning of the story. the exposition will often have information about events that happened before the story began. the exposition is often the very first part of the plot.

it is grammatically incorrect and is illegible to me and i can not answer it.
