7 Write a paragraph analyzing the central ideas in
"Sonnet 71" by William Shakespeare. Be sure to
explain how the sonnet's form supports the
development of the central ideas, and examine whether
the ideas in the poem remain consistent.

In this sonnet, the speaker focuses on his own death and the emotions it provokes in young people (his beloved in particular). Aware that the youth will mourn him upon his death, he suggests them not to be sad.

The very structure of the sonnet contributes to the development of the ideas. The structure of this sonnet is that of a typical Shakespearean sonnet - it contains three quatrains and a final couplet. In the first quatrain, the speaker gives his beloved an advice to mourn for as long as the church bell rings - or, in other words, not for too long. In the second quatrain, the speaker points out that it is a better option to forget him completely, if thinking about him would make people dear to him sad. In the third quatrain, he expresses the idea that his name should not be even mentioned while reading the poem. The final couplet serves both as a conclusion to the poem, but also introduces a new idea: the speaker becomes suddenly concerned with what other people, apart from him and his beloved, will think of them after his death:

"Lest the wise world should look into your moan

And mock you with me after I am gone."

the water represents a powerful force, and supports the idea that farquhar cannot escape his fate.

hmm, sadly there is no dialogue. there is no place in the story where he is talking to anyone. it's more of just describing what he eats and where he sleeps. you have to become anne frank, give details of where you are, what other folks look like, how the environment is. have a little bit of dialogue tell of what people are specifically saying. anne frank talked about her entire household including the people, the objects, the lighting, the food they ate, and even the smell in the air. there has to be more to your diary entries, the whole story in its current state is only about peter van daan, the food, the sounds, and where he sleeps. also he seems to be writing only once a year yet more than that happened from day to day. for a friend, i can you write it out, if you want.
