Question

Read William Shakespeare’s Sonnet 18. Note that it is divided into three quatrains followed by a concluding couplet. Which two signals indicate the start of the third quatrain in line nine?

Answer 1

Answer:

The two signals which indicate the start of the third quatrain in line nine are: A: There is a shift in topic. B: There is a stanza break. In the third quatrain, the speaker no longer compares his lover to the sun, he points out the difference using "But" thus changing the topic and says that his lover's beauty will not fade away, it is immortalized in this sonnet - which the final couplet confirms.
