<em>I Shall Not Care</em> falls into the "experiencing failed love" category because there's evidence from the first verses that one of the lovers is no longer corresponding the other one. Passages such as "Tho you should lean above me broken-hearted, I shall not care" denote there's one person who is not loving the other one anymore.  

The title itself expresses the intention of this poem, that in a near future, after a stage where she will feel dead, the author will be "more silent," "cold-hearted" and have "more peace." He, on the other hand, will be left on "deserted places," "shadowless" and thirsty.      

On the other hand, <em>Dew </em>fits into the "falling in love" category. It uses the first verses to describe calm, beautiful imagery. Dew are small drops of water that form during the night and are quite refreshing, while the "rainbow gem", "jewels" and "pastures" all evoke nice, sparkly and shiny sensations.

Later on, Teasdale expresses how the new love: "your love, my lover, fresh as the dawn" is making her travel through a refreshing and shiny road only she can enjoy. "Delicately alight, for me alone" means this love is something new for her and it is a journey she is happy to experience and feel to the maximum.  

Finally,<em> Lights </em>shows two people who share the same home and are comfortable with the shadowy space they have for themselves, away from the lights. They feel "safe in our own love and the gentle gloom," apart from the exterior world.

In the second and third stanza the author describes the lights and streets of the city that surrounds the lovers. They feel pity for having something so special and unique, while the rest of the people are not "wholly joyous, proud and free." This poem depicts a couple who have been together for some time already, so it is in the "being in love" category.

Write a paragraph that evaluates Odysseus’s qualifications as an epic hero.
Oksi-84 [34.3K]

Answer:

Odysseus has all of the qualifications as an epic leader. He is wise, and determined.

" I had touched the spot when sudden fear stayed me: if I killed him we perished there as well, for we could never move his ponderous doorway slab aside. So we were left to groan and wait for morning."

This proves that he knows what is right, and they he is determined to do what he believes is best for his crew. Odysseus knows that if he kills the Cyclops, then he and his men will not be able to go inside the cave.

Read the passage from Rain Myths.
AnnyKZ [126]

The sentence from the passage which is the best example of the feature found in a myth is "Near the beginning of life on Earth, Shen Nong, who was the Lord of the Wind, made many journeys over our world."

Myth refers to the traditional stories which include supernatural beings or events, concerned with the history of the people or explaining the social or natural phenomenon. For Example folk tales, fable, lore and so on.

Therefore, the above instance suggests that in <em>"Near the beginning of life on Earth"</em>, where no co- life existed with Shen Nong, he is considered to be the existence on earth. On the other hand, <em>"Lord of the Wind"</em> contains a supernatural figure which bestows the power related to wind. Hence, this sentence is considered to be the myth as it can relate to false idea or belief.
