Which lines in this poem indicate that the poetic speaker refuses to be beguiled by love any longer? Farewell Love by Sir Thomas Wyatt Farewell, Love, and all thy laws for ever: Thy baited hooks shall tangle me no more. Senec and Plato call me from thy lore, To perfect wealth my wit for to endeavour. In blind error when I did persever, Thy sharp repulse, that wingspaneth aye so sore, Hath taught me to set in trifles no store, And scape forth, since liberty is lever. Therefore farewell, go trouble younger hearts, And in me claim no more authority; With idle youth go use thy property
With idle youth go use thy property, And thereon spend thy many brittle darts. For, hitherto though I've lost my time, Me lusteth no longer rotten boughs to climb
Options: Thy baited hooks shall tangle me no more. Senec and Plato call me from thy lore, In blind error when I did persever, Hath taught me to set in trifles no store, Therefore farewell, go trouble younger hearts And thereon spend thy many brittle darts. Me lusteth no longer rotten boughs to climb This is the last question btw
@LunyMoony (I have to retake a test so some I may have already asked.)
This poem is written correctly and he starts it out by saying, "Farewell, Love, and all thy laws for ever:" ....which indicates that he is done with love forever and sets the tone for the rest of the poem I believe.
It's not one of the options I can pick ): I can only choose Thy baited hooks shall tangle me no more. Senec and Plato call me from thy lore, In blind error when I did persever, Hath taught me to set in trifles no store, Therefore farewell, go trouble younger hearts And thereon spend thy many brittle darts. Me lusteth no longer rotten boughs to climb
Would it be "Thy baited hooks..." ?
@LunyMoony ? /:
No, I'm not sold on that, but you do what you think best :)
Well out of the options which would you say? :b
Still the one I said, "Farewell, Love, and all thy laws for ever:"
Well I can't pick that one, it won't let me so I guess I'll go with baited hooks $:
Ok! Awesome!
Okay, can you help with one to two more? That's all I have left
Yep
Did you ever figure out the answer to this question?
No :/
