Read shakespeare's "sonnet 73" and answer the question.

that time of year thou mayst in me behold
when yellow leaves, or none, or few do hang
upon those boughs which shake against the cold,
bare ruined choirs, where late the sweet birds sang
in me thou sees the twilight of such day
as after sunset fadeth in the west;
which by and by black night doth take away,
death's second self that seals up all in rest.
in me thou seest the glowing of such fire
that on the ashes of his youth doth lie,
as the deathbed whereon it must expire,
consumed with that which it was nourished by.
this thou perceiv'st, which makes thy love more strong,
to love that well, which thou must leave ere long.

according to the sonnet, what makes love stronger?

the power of hope

the brightness of life

the infinite nature of the universe

the inevitability of death

The inevitability of death.

Explanation:

In this beautiful sonnet, Shakespeare speaks of youth gone by as a fire that once glowed bright but now is nothing more than ashes; ashes that form a deathbed for the speaker where it will all expire consumed by what once was but, inevitably, had to perish and pass on, like everything and everyone. The inevitability of death does make this terrible sight for the one that loves, beautiful and more powerful nonetheless.

the answer is the second one.

1. read the following excerpt from franklin d. roosevelt's "fireside chat 19":

on the other side of the picture, we must learn also to know that guerilla warfare against the germans in, let us say serbia or norway, us; that a successful russian offensive against the germans us; and that british successes on land or sea in any part of the world strengthen our hands.

remember always that germany and italy, regardless of any formal declaration of war, consider themselves at war with the united states at this moment just as much as they consider themselves at war with britain or russia. and germany puts all the other republics of the americas into the same category of enemies. the people of our sister republics of this hemisphere can be honored by that fact.  

the true goal we seek is far above and beyond the ugly field of battle. when we resort to force, as now we must, we are determined that this force shall be directed toward ultimate good as well as against immediate evil. we americans are not destroyers — we are builders.
