Hi could someone help me out? i am having trouble *imagery question* Medals given

OpenStudy (lexi724):

Okay here is the text---- When I was fair and young, then favor graced me. Of many was I sought their mistriss for to be, But I did scorn them all and answered them therefore: Go, go, go, seek some other where, importune me no more. How many weeping eyes I made to pine in woe, How many sighing hearts I have not skill to show, But I the prouder grew and still this spake therefore: Go, go, go, seek some other where, importune me no more. Then spake fair Venus' son, that brave victorious boy, Saying: You dainty dame, for that you be so coy, I will so pluck your plumes as you shall say no more: Go, go, go, seek some other where, importune me no more. As soon as he had said, such change grew in my breast That neither night nor day I could take any rest. Wherefore I did repent that I had said before: Go, go, go, seek some other where, importune me no more.

OpenStudy (lexi724):

OpenStudy (anonymous):

OpenStudy (lexi724):

hmm those are good

OpenStudy (lexi724):

i just need to figure out how to describe it

OpenStudy (anonymous):

what do you mean by describing it?

OpenStudy (lexi724):

Here is the literal question that i have to answer--- 3. List at least three examples of imagery in the text that add to the overall tone. Explain how each description contributes to the emotional power of the piece.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

The weeping and the sighing shows the emotions of the character, and the plucking of the plumes shows how hurt that character is.

OpenStudy (lexi724):

OpenStudy (anonymous):
