4. What metaphors in this sonnet compare the speaker's sadness to things having to do with the law? (Look for legal terms like summon, canceled, expense, grievances,
account, pay.)

Explanation:

In this sonnet, the speaker talks about the sorrow and grief that he feels when he considers all the people and things he has lost in his life. He cries when he remembers his good friends who have passed away, he weeps when he recalls lost loves that have come and gone, and he wails when he considers all the scenes he has witnessed that he can see no more. After this, he even grieves over losses he has already come to terms with and grieves them all over again, as though he never had actually grieved them. He uses a metaphor here, comparing this last kind of grieving to an "account" that he must "new pay as if not paid before"; in other words, he has already grieved (or "paid") and yet he feels as if he must grieve all over again (paying this "account" again, when he already feels he has paid).

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.
