116

A bit of a hodgepodge today -
1. Vocab Quiz 4. I am saving the Unit 5 words for the next quiz as it deals with Macbeth.
2. Multiple Choice Prose Passage. High score of 11/13. Remember, you want to score over 50% on the multiple choice to keep you on the path of a 3 or above.
3. A quick recap of Sonnet 130.
4. Sonnet 116 -- made famous, in my mind at least, as Marianne's love poem to Willoughby in Sense & Sensibility. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5WOFLpmDbIs

For homework, identify the iambic pentameter of your assigned line and lines 11-14. You should pay close attention to what words are stressed and how this connects to the overall theme of the poem.

And, I found this article regarding a St. Louis body snatching -- something we will find topical next semester with Frankenstein: http://www.stltoday.com/entertainment/books-and-literature/book-blog/when-body-snatching-came-to-s-st-louis/article_22da7cff-e391-5adf-9e63-4755069e04d2.html
