.... thousands of people to die. The plague is also synonymous with suffering. Donne writes that he has “had the plague a year,” by writing this Donne has been deathly ill for what he thinks is a year. Love, to Donne is something that you think about for a long time so, therefore, it seems that you have loved someone for that long but in reality it is only a short period of time. According to Donne, love is very powerful and causes the widespread destruction to thousands. Donne also uses the image of despair and depression. In the second stanza, he says “Ah, what a trifle is a heart, if once into love’s hands it come!” In these lines Donne give ....

.... apples left on the tree and one of his baskets isn’t quite full. His feet hurt from standing on the ladder for too long and the smell of apples is everywhere. He is tired and starts to drift off into sleep. Frost takes this ordinary experience and turns it into a contemplation on life. The first sign of any kind of tension is in the first six lines. The ladder, which points “toward heaven,” represents the speaker’s climb through life toward death and heaven and the barrel and apples left on the tree represent things he regrets having or not having done during his lifetime. But in line six he says that he is “done with apple-picking now,” which sounds as if ....

.... to the similar themes in these novels, one can find many similarities between the protagonists: Gene and John. By examining their attributes and relationships with their friends, one can tell that both these protagonists are somewhat comparable.

.... the treatment of slaves is and how inhuman the slave-trade is. It might escape me, but I do not recall any moment in the story where the narrator takes its upon herself to discuss the slave trade. It seems that in that way that she is disconnecting herself from any responsibility. One could immediately say that this is because of her position at the time. Behn, being a woman, faced many prejudices from male writers and critics, although she was praised by some. Yet the anthology introduction states that she openly signed her name and talked back to critics. If this is true why would she be afraid to take a more open stance towards the question of slavery. Why does th ....

.... increasing speed, so shocking and destructive, particularly for David. David’s view of life dramatically starts to change through the eavesdropping of his mother and father’s conversation regarding Frank’s behaviour towards the woman on the Indian reservation. While David must pretend, not just for the remainder of the novel, but for the next forty years, to be ignorant of Frank’s crimes, and therefore of much of what is happening although his parents do not realise that he has overheard their discussions. David’s previous image of Frank along with happy memories therefore were gone, never to return, and within six months of the funeral both him and his famil ....

.... emotions; instead of trying to fool Malvolio; they let Malvolio fool himself. The letter was written, in Malvolio's mind, as if it was written to him. That was the intent of the three fools, but Malvolio exaggerated every sentence with his own inflated ego. As he reads on, his head fills with more crazy ideas and he lends himself better to be fooled. Anything could have been written at the end of the letter and it is certain that Malvolio would, in his mind, alter it to make it refer to himself. It is easy to tell what Malvolio is feeling while he reads the fraudulent letter; some parts affect him in a greater, more obvious way than others. The phrase, "Some are born ....
