Which of the following couplets from shakespeare's sonnet 138 employs double entendre to express the theme that physical love triumphs over all failures?
a) when my love swears that she is made of truth/i do believe her, though i know she lies
b) that she might think me some untotor'd youth/unlearned in the world's false subtletles
c) o, love's best habits is seeming trust/ and age in love loves not to have years told
d) therefore i lie with her and she with me/ and in our faults by lies we flatter'd be

D) therefore i lie with her and she with me/ and in our faults by lies we flatter'd be.

In this sonnet, Shakespeare discusses how love is not always ideal and pure as poetry makes it seem like. He describes his relationship with his lover, and he tells us that he is not always honest with her. Moreover, he knows she is not always honest with him. However, he states that these small lies and deception do not necessarily follow a bad intention, and that their goal is to make the other one feel better. Therefore, when they lie together, their physical love is more powerful than anything else and they continue to love each other, despite their failures.
