Read William Shakespeare’s “Sonnet 18.” Shall I compare thee to a summer’s day? Thou art more lovely and more temperate: Rough winds do shake the darling buds of May, And summer’s lease hath all too short a date; Sometime too hot the eye of heaven shines, And often is his gold complexion dimm’d; And every fair from fair sometime declines, By chance or nature’s changing course untrimm’d; But thy eternal summer shall not fade, Nor lose possession of that fair thou ow’st; Nor shall death brag thou wander’st in his shade, When in eternal lines to time thou grow’st: So long as men can breathe or eyes can see, So long lives this, and this gives life to thee. Which words in the poem contribute to its affectionate tone?

Now, see! There it is, playing a good way off. Stand you here, and let me run and catch it. I am but a child. It will not flee from me–for I wear nothing on my bosom yet!” “Nor ever will, my child, I hope” said Hester. “And why not, mother?” asked Pearl, stopping short, just at the beginning of her race. “Will not it come of its own accord when I am a woman grown?” “Run away, child” answered her mother “and catch the sunshine. It will soon be gone.” Which rule for incorporating dialogue is ignored in this passage?
