Sonnet 42
- 1. SONNET 42 Dori Greenberg 8C English
- 2. Lines 1 and 2 That thou hast her it is not all my grief, And yet it may be said I loved her dearly; That you got the girl I am not upset, Even though it is say that I really loved her
- 3. Lines 3 and 4 That she hath thee is of my wailing chief, A loss in love that touches me more nearly. Because she has you I tend to cry, Loosing her love is very hard on me. Notice how the author begins to contradict themselves, in the beginning he didnt care but now he cries because the other man got the girl
- 4. Lines 5 and 6 Loving offenders this I will excuse ye: Thou dost love her, because thou knowst I love her I will excuse you for hurting and offending me with your love You love he only because you know I love her
- 5. Lines 7 and 8 And for my sake even so doth she abuse me, Suffering my friend for my sake to approve her And she is rude and mean to me. For my own good she says. I struggle for my own sake to accept her.
- 6. Lines 9 and 10 If I lose the my loss is my loves gain, And loosing her my friend hath found that loss; If I loose you my loss is your love gain. You loose my love and get the love of someone else while I am left here a lone. And since I have lost her love I have felt the loss, the emptiness.
- 7. Lines 11 and 12 Both find each other, and I lose both twain, And both for my sake lay on me this cross: You both fall in love and have each other, and I am left here all alone. And you both have each other, so just kill me now.
- 8. Line 13 But heres the joy; my friend and I are one But if you look on the bright side, the good thing is that my friend and I are the same person. The speaker has two sides, two identities. There for throughout the poem the speaker was just jealous of himself
- 9. Line 13 - comparison In line 13 we find out that the poet has two identities. And both identities want the same girl. Similarly in the story spider man. Peter parker (whom is also spider man two identities) loves Marry Jane. Although Marry Jane loves spider man, and spider man cant tell her he is both men because he has to keep his secret.
- 10. Line 14 Sweet flattery! Then she loves me but me alone. Oh joy. Now she can love me and only me. I get her all to my self.
