SHARKS' TEETH
Langston Carter
The day we found the sharks' teeth was foggy and cool. Moisture hung in the air so thick you could almost see it sparkling in the dim sunlight. There were days, early in the summer like this one, where it seemed there was more water in the air than in the bay. We had beached the boat and stepped out on the recently cleared spit of land. The ground had a light dusting of white sand over an under layer of dried black mud. It looked like a recently frosted chocolate cake, though the frosting was spread a bit thin for my taste. The ground was solid, but we knew from experience that it was full of fiddler crab holes, and would be underwater at the first super-high tide. Mysteriously, to us anyway, someone wanted to build a house there.
We often came to these spots to look for artifacts. Our beach, our summer home, had been a fishing camp for as long as anyone living could remember. The oldest stories told of travelers coming down to the edge of the sea, lining up to fill their wagon beds with salted fish to take back home. Old decaying cabins still lined the beach. Rotting nets, hung out to dry in the last century, decorated their weathered walls. Their broken faces spun stories in our minds. The fishermen who, tanned and wrinkled from sun and salt, hauled their nets full of splashing mullet in to cheers from the waiting crowds. The bounty of the sea lightened everyone's hearts, and the smell of roasting fish filled the damp air. Women fanned themselves from wagon seats. Children splashed in the shallow edges of the bay. It was a scene we had acted out as youngsters, building an imaginary bridge to a life we would never fully know.

I Wandered Lonely as a Cloud
by William Wordsworth
I wandered lonely as a Cloud
That floats on high o'er vales and Hills,
When all at once I saw a crowd,
A host, of golden Daffodils;
Beside the Lake, beneath the trees,
Fluttering and dancing in the breeze.
Continuous as the stars that shine
And twinkle on the milky way,
They stretched in never-ending line
Along the margin of a bay:
Ten thousand saw I at a glance,
Tossing their heads in sprightly dance.
The waves beside them danced; but they
Out-did the sparkling waves in glee:
A Poet could not but be gay
In such a jocund company:
I gazed—and gazed—but little thought
What wealth the show to me had brought:
For oft when on my couch I lie
In vacant or in pensive mood,
They flash upon that inward eye
Which is the bliss of solitude,
And then my heart with pleasure fills,
And dances with the Daffodils.
QUESTION:
What effect does the poetic form of “I Wandered Lonely as a Cloud” have on Wordsworth’s message? Describe the poetic form Wordsworth uses in the poem and explain how it affects the meaning. Your response should be one to two paragraphs.

Try researching more on the topic of your paper, and cite sources because a lot of teachers check for plagarism so citing would get you out of that category. Furthermore, if you do decide that you cited to much rephrase the words to make it sound different yet about the same topic.

Tyger, tyger, burning bright
In the forests of the night,
What immortal hand or eye
Could frame thy fearful symmetry?
In what distant deeps or skies
Burnt the fire of thine eyes?
On what wings dare he aspire?
What the hand dare seize the fire?
And what shoulder and what art
Could twist the sinews of thy heart?
And, when thy heart began to beat,
What dread hand and what dread feet?
What the hammer? what the chain?
In what furnace was thy brain?
What the anvil? what dread grasp
Dare its deadly terrors clasp?
When the stars threw down their spears,
And watered heaven with their tears,
Did He smile His work to see?
Did He who made the lamb make thee?
Tyger, tyger, burning bright
In the forests of the night,
What immortal hand or eye
Dare frame thy fearful symmetry?

Answer:
Answer:
i am very confused
Explanation: what du u want me tu du?
Answer:
The poem begins with the speaker asking a fearsome tiger what kind of divine being could have created it: “What immortal hand or eye/ Could frame they fearful symmetry?” Each subsequent stanza contains further questions, all of which refine this first one. From what part of the cosmos could the tiger’s fiery eyes have come, and who would have dared to handle that fire? What sort of physical presence, and what kind of dark craftsmanship, would have been required to “twist the sinews” of the tiger’s heart? The speaker wonders how, once that horrible heart “began to beat,” its creator would have had the courage to continue the job. Comparing the creator to a blacksmith, he ponders about the anvil and the furnace that the project would have required and the smith who could have wielded them. And when the job was done, the speaker wonders, how would the creator have felt? “Did he smile his work to see?” Could this possibly be the same being who made the lamb?
Form
The poem is comprised of six quatrains in rhymed couplets. The meter is regular and rhythmic, its hammering beat suggestive of the smithy that is the poem’s central image. The simplicity and neat proportions of the poems form perfectly suit its regular structure, in which a string of questions all contribute to the articulation of a single, central idea.

Commentary
The opening question enacts what will be the single dramatic gesture of the poem, and each subsequent stanza elaborates on this conception. Blake is building on the conventional idea that nature, like a work of art, must in some way contain a reflection of its creator. The tiger is strikingly beautiful yet also horrific in its capacity for violence. What kind of a God, then, could or would design such a terrifying beast as the tiger? In more general terms, what does the undeniable existence of evil and violence in the world tell us about the nature of God, and what does it mean to live in a world where a being can at once contain both beauty and horror?
The tiger initially appears as a strikingly sensuous image. However, as the poem progresses, it takes on a symbolic character, and comes to embody the spiritual and moral problem the poem explores: perfectly beautiful and yet perfectly destructive, Blake’s tiger becomes the symbolic center for an investigation into the presence of evil in the world. Since the tiger’s remarkable nature exists both in physical and moral terms, the speaker’s questions about its origin must also encompass both physical and moral dimensions. The poem’s series of questions repeatedly ask what sort of physical creative capacity the “fearful symmetry” of the tiger bespeaks; assumedly only a very strong and powerful being could be capable of such a creation.
The smithy represents a traditional image of artistic creation; here Blake applies it to the divine creation of the natural world. The “forging” of the tiger suggests a very physical, laborious, and deliberate kind of making; it emphasizes the awesome physical presence of the tiger and precludes the idea that such a creation could have been in any way accidentally or haphazardly produced. It also continues from the first description of the tiger the imagery of fire with its simultaneous connotations of creation, purification, and destruction. The speaker stands in awe of the tiger as a sheer physical and aesthetic achievement, even as he recoils in horror from the moral implications of such a creation; for the poem addresses not only the question of who could make such a creature as the tiger, but who would perform this act. This is a question of creative responsibility and of will, and the poet carefully includes this moral question with the consideration of physical power. Note, in the third stanza, the parallelism of “shoulder” and “art,” as well as the fact that it is not just the body but also the “heart” of the tiger that is being forged. The repeated use of word the “dare” to replace the “could” of the first stanza introduces a dimension of aspiration and willfulness into the sheer might of the creative act.

Which THREE sets of lines in this excerpt from act II, scene IV, of Twelfth Night suggest that a woman is inconstant in love?
DUKE: [There is no woman's sides
Can bide the beating of so strong a passion
As love doth give my heart; no woman's heart]
So big, to hold so much; [they lack retention.
Alas, their love may be call'd appetite,
No motion of the liver], [but the palate,
That suffer surfeit, cloyment and revolt];
[But mine is all as hungry as the sea,
And can digest as much: make no compare
Between that love a woman can bear me]
And that I owe Olivia.
VIOLA: Ay, but I know—
DUKE: What dost thou know?
VIOLA: [Too well what love women to men may owe:
In faith, they are as true of heart as we.
My father had a daughter loved a man,]
As it might be, perhaps, were I a woman,
I should your lordship.
Answer:
1. Alas, their love may be call'd appetite,
No motion of the liver], [but the palate,
That suffer surfeit, cloyment and revolt]
2. My father had a daughter loved a man,]
As it might be, perhaps, were I a woman,
I should your lordship.
3. Twelfth Night suggest that a woman is inconstant in love?
Explanation:
<3
The three sets of lines that suggest that a woman is inconstant in love are "Alas, their love may be called'd appetite, no motion of the liver," "That suffer surplus, cloying, and revolt," and "between that love a woman can bear me."
What are three sets of lines?The first set of lines ("Alas, their love may be called appetite, No motion of the liver") suggests that women's love is akin to an appetite, something that comes and goes and lacks true depth. The second set of lines ("That suffer surplus, cloying, and revolt") suggests that women's love is prone to excess and indulgence. The word "surfeit" implies an overindulgence or excess, while "cloyment" suggests a sense of being overwhelmed or satiated. The third set of lines ("Between that love a woman can bear me") emphasizes the difference between the Duke's love and the love a woman can offer.
Hence, three sets of lines that suggest that a woman is inconstant in love are "Alas, their love may be called'd appetite, no motion of the liver," "That suffer surplus, cloying, and revolt," and "between that love a woman can bear me."
