Question over Donnet's Sonnet 43 Death, be not proud, though some have called thee
Mighty and dreadful, for thou art not so:
For those whom thou think st thou dost overthrow
Die not poor Death, nor yet canst thou kill me.
From rest and sleep, which but thy pictures be,
Much pleasure, then from thee much more must flow,
And soonest our best men with thee do go, Rest of their bones, and soul's delivery.
Thou art slave to fate, chance, kings, and desperate men.
And dost with poison, war, and sickness dwell
And poppy or charms can make us sleep as well
And better than thy stroke: why swell'st thou then?
One short sleep past, we wake eternally And death shall be no more:
Death, thou shalt die.

Q: What imagery does John Donne use to show why Death should not be proud? What is the closing paradox? Answer the same, by naming the literary device including paradox, and giving the specific example for at least three examples.

In which of the following excerpts from "the yellow wall paper" does author charlotte perkins gilman seem to mock the romantic belief in the supernatural? a. a colonial mansion, a hereditary estate, i would say a haunted house, and reach the height of romantic felicity—but that would be asking too much of fate! b. there is a delicious garden! i never saw such a garden—large and shady, full of box-bordered paths, and lined with long grape-covered arbors with seats under them.c. the color is repellent, almost revolting; a smoldering unclean yellow, strangely faded by the slow-turning sunlight.d. then i peeled off all the paper i could reach standing on the floor. it sticks horribly and the pattern just enjoys it!
