Which line in this poem indicates that the poetic speaker is hopelessly in love? sonnet 8 from astrophil and stella by philip sidney love, born in greece, of late fled from his native place, forc’d by a tedious proof, that turkish harden’d heart is no fit mark to pierce with his fine pointed dart, and pleas’d with our soft peace, stayed here his flying race. but finding these north climes do coldly him embrace, not used to frozen clips, he strave to find some part where with most ease and warmth he might employ his art: at length he perch’d himself in stella’s joyful face, whose fair skin, beamy eyes, like morning sun on snow, deceiv’d the quaking boy, who thought from so pure light effects of lively heat must needs in nature grow. but she most fair, most cold, made him thence take his flight to my close heart, where while some firebrands he did lay, he burnt un’wares his wings, and cannot fly away.

in the short story the slip-over sweater by jesse stuart, the main character and narrator shan is friends with grace, an intelligent girl he has known since childhood and with whom he used to be in love.

at the beginning of the story, shan believes he’s no longer in love with grace, but loves jo-anne instead. in order to buy a slip-over sweater and have jo-anne wear it so that the other students would know she loved him too, shan takes a loan at the bank.

while jo-anne is wearing shan’s sweater, his friend grace starts to wear another popular boy’s one, roy’s sweater. because of that, the other students begin to pay attention to grace and compliment her perseverance and effort. they admire her for walking 5 miles to school every day, despite the weather, and still getting the best grades. shan, who knows all of that for a fact, says, as the narrator, ‘and i knew she had the durability and the toughness of a storm-battered mountain oak.’ he compares his friend’s strength – not only physical, but also of character – to an oak tree, whose wood is known for being sturdy.

as the story goes on, shan changes his behavior out of concern for the debt he has to pay at the bank. his new girlfriend jo-anne never asks him what is wrong nor offers any sort of . instead, she breaks up with shan for not being as fun as she thought he was supposed to be. grace, however, not only asks about shan’s problem, but him make the money he needs. shan can’t but notice how different the girls are and what a wonderful person grace is.   even though he used to find jo-anne prettier at the beginning of the story, he now says, ‘grace was as beautiful as our mountain was in april, prettier than a blossom of wild phlox or a mountain daisy.’ his comparing grace to a mountain or something that exists on a mountain (such as a mountain oak or daisy) certainly has important meaning since shan loves the mountain and everything about it and he knows the mountain thoroughly. shan also loves and knows grace as completely as he does the mountain.
