Read Shakespeare's "Sonnet 19.”

Devouring Time, blunt thou the lion's paws,
And make the earth devour her own sweet brood;
Pluck the keen teeth from the fierce tiger's jaws,
And burn the long-liv'd phoenix, in her blood;
Make glad and sorry seasons as thou fleets,
And do whate'er thou wilt, swift-footed Time,
To the wide world and all her fading sweets;
But I forbid thee one most heinous crime:
O! carve not with thy hours my love's fair brow,
Nor draw no lines there with thine antique pen;
Him in thy course untainted do allow
For beauty's pattern to succeeding men.
Yet, do thy worst old Time: despite thy wrong,
My love shall in my verse ever live young.

Answer: This is an example of a Shakespearean sonnet because of:

  1. the abab, cdcd, efef, gg rhyme scheme
  2. the widespread use of iambic pentameter
  3. the use of three quatrains followed by a couplet

Explanation:

In 1609, Shakespeare published 154 sonnets, among which is Sonnet 19. The poem deals with the power of time.

This sonnet is representative of a Shakespearean sonnet because:

  1. It follows the typical the abab, cdcd, efef, gg rhyme scheme
  2. the widespread use of iambic pentameter  (a rhyme scheme in which each line contains ten syllables -five pairs which are called iambs). For instance, "But I forbid thee one more heinous crime."
  3. the use of three quatrains followed by a couplet. The first twelve lines in a sonnet are divided into three quatrains (each containing 4 lines), followed by a couplet (two lines written in the same rhyme and meter).
