Answer:

The sound device shows how helpless love is in relation to time. As time passes, love declines.

Explanation:

The poem talks about the changes that love goes through over the years and how the love of many is diminished and ended over time. Lines 24-26 report this with greater emphasis, through the use of rhymes that impose a musicality and a feeling that time is moving rhythmically. This shows the pressure of time on love, as it reinforces the idea that love can decline if it is not used soon.

zhuklara [117]

Lancelot's past behavior, specifically, his secret love affair with Queen Guinevere directly generates the conflict and the moral dilemma that he faces in the siege of Benwick.

The illicit relationship of Queen Guinevere with Lancelot was exposed by Sir Gawain.  This treason caused King Arthur to condemn Queen Guinevere to death at the stake.

The death sentence then motivated Lancelot to rescue her.  In this process, he killed Gawain's relations.  Thus, Lancelot was further exposed to additional moral dilemma.  His actions inflated the revengeful grudge of Gawain against Lancelot.

While Lancelot worked to reconcile with the wronged King Arthur, Gawain was bent on revenge and succeeded in murdering Lancelot and burying him in a wrong place.

"Thus, Lancelot was further exposed to AN additional moral dilemma."

Read the following passage to answer questions
7nadin3 [17]
1.   <span>A. strength

The simile that likens his shoulders to a full sail shows the force that must be exerted to plough the field. A "globed" sail would be rounded because of the powerful winds blowing against it. Just as the wind's, resistance is transformed into something useful by moving the boat forwards; his father's exertion transforms the land into fields that grow crops of food. While ploughing the land in this way would certainly require knowledge and skill, the simile does not refer to these qualities.

2. </span><span>D. "Mapping the furrow exactly" </span>

Reference to the father's expertise is indicated by his "mapping the furrow" and doing so "exactly."
