(完整word版)英国文学选读课后答案
英国文学选读Poems:Hamlet (Act 3, Scene 1, lines 55-86)生存或毁灭, 这是个必答之问题是否应默默的忍受坎苛命运之无情打击, 还是应与深如大海之无涯苦难奋然为敌, 并将其克服。
死即睡眠, 它不过如此!倘若一眠能了结心灵之苦楚与肉体之百患, 那么, 此结局是可盼的! 死去, 睡去...但在睡眠中可能有梦, 啊, 这就是个阻碍: 当我们摆脱了此垂死之皮囊,在死之长眠中会有何梦来临? 它令我们踌躇, 使我们心甘情愿的承受长年之灾,否则谁肯容忍人间之百般折磨, 如暴君之政、骄者之傲失恋之痛、法章之慢贪官之侮、或庸民之辱假如他能简单的一刃了之? 还有谁会肯去做牛做马, 终生疲於操劳默默的忍受其苦其难, 而不远走高飞, 飘於渺茫之境倘若他不是因恐惧身後之事而使他犹豫不前?此境乃无人知晓之邦, 自古无返者进入我们无法知晓的地域所以,「理智」能使我们成为懦夫而「顾虑」能使我们本来辉煌之心志变得黯然无光, 像个病夫再之, 这些更能坏大事, 乱大谋, 使它们失去魄力。
Hamlet P81. Why is sleep so frightening, according to Hamlet, since it can “end” the heartache and the thousand natural shocks”?Nobody can predict what he will dream of after he falls asleep. Death means the end of life, you may go to or unknown world and you can’t comeback. If he dies, Hamlet’s can't realize his will. Though “sleep” can end the heartache and the thousand natural shocks, it is a state of mind. Hamlet didn’t know at all. He is frightened by the possible suffering in the long “dream”. He can’t predict what will happen in the sleep, may be good may be evil.2. Why would people rather bear all the sufferings of the world instead of choosing death to get rid of them, according to Hamlet?Death is so mysterious that nobody knows what death will bring to us. Maybe bitter sufferings, great pains, heartbreaking stories…Because people hold the same idea "to grunt and sweat under a weary life, but that the dread of something after death-the undiscovered country, form whose bourn no traveler returns-puzzle the will, and make us rather bear those ills we have than fly to others that we know not of?” People also are frightened by the myths in another world after death.3. What, after all, makes people lose their determination to take action? Please explain in relation to the so-called hesitation of Hamlet.Conscience and over-considerations. He wants to revenge, but doesn’t know how. He wants to kill his uncle, but finds it too risky. He lives in despair and wants to commit suicide. However, he knows if he dies, nobody will comfort his father’s ghost. He is in face of great dilemma. They don’t know the result after their taking the action. Such as Ham let, he doesn’t know what would happen if he kills hisuncle or kills himself. So Hamlet was hesitated.Sonnet 18 P15我怎么能够把你来比作夏天？你不独比它可爱也比它温婉：狂风把五月宠爱的嫩蕊作践，夏天出赁的期限又未免太短：天上的眼睛有时照得太酷烈，它那炳耀的金颜又常遭掩蔽：被机缘或无常的天道所摧折，没有芳艳不终于雕残或销毁。
Shakespeare-Sonnets选篇译文赏析
Shakespeare’s Sonnets选篇译文赏析0906 刘颖1609年，莎士比亚发表了他最后一部出版的非戏剧类著作《十四行诗》。
学者认为，154首十四行诗总的来说被莎士比亚分为两个相对的系列：一个是关于意为皮肤白皙的年轻男子纯洁的爱（sonnet1到sonnet126）；另一个则是关于对一位已婚皮肤黝黑的女子的不可抑制的欲望（sonnet127到sonnet152）。
但尽管有大量学者研究，至今仍不清楚：是否这些人物代表了真实的人？诗中的“我”是否代表莎士比亚？如果是，莎士比亚的性取向到底是什么？献词中的MR. W.H.又到底是何许人?虽然疑问重重，评论家们普遍赞美Shakespeare’s Sonnets 是爱、性欲、生殖、死亡和时间的本性的深刻思索。
在此，我将结合《莎士比亚十四行诗》田伟华译本（中国画报出版社，2011年3月第1版）和辜正坤的《莎士比亚十四行诗》（中国对外翻译出版社，2008年1月），在两个方面对与作者鼓励爱人结婚生子有关的十四行诗的翻译进行分析。
一、对亲爱的朋友及其容貌的描写纵观154首诗，莎士比亚在对爱人的赞美及对其美貌的描述可谓多姿多彩、语汇丰富、用词洗练、比喻新颖。
Sonnet 1中，“thou that art now the world’s fresh ornament, and only herald to the gaudy spring.” thou that art在现代英语中也就是you who are, fresh指人的外表年轻的、健康的，herald是使者的意思。
因此，田伟华先生译为“你是当今世界最新鲜的装饰品，你是灿烂春天里的唯一信使”文采与感情兼具。
Sonnet 2中,“when forty winters shall besiege thy b row, and dig deep trenches in thy beauty’s field”这里的besiege 指“包围”，可知作者在1、2行将岁月侵蚀美貌进行军事比喻，因此喻指皱纹的trenches译为“战壕”更合适。
英国文学选读课文翻译
Hamlet生存或毁灭, 这是个必答之问题:是否应默默的忍受坎苛命运之无情打击,还是应与深如大海之无涯苦难奋然为敌,并将其克服。
此二抉择, 就竟是哪个较崇高?死即睡眠, 它不过如此!倘若一眠能了结心灵之苦楚与肉体之百患,那么, 此结局是可盼的!死去, 睡去...但在睡眠中可能有梦, 啊, 这就是个阻碍:当我们摆脱了此垂死之皮囊,在死之长眠中会有何梦来临?它令我们踌躇,使我们心甘情愿的承受长年之灾,否则谁肯容忍人间之百般折磨,如暴君之政、骄者之傲、失恋之痛、法章之慢、贪官之侮、或庸民之辱,假如他能简单的一刃了之?还有谁会肯去做牛做马, 终生疲於操劳,默默的忍受其苦其难, 而不远走高飞, 飘於渺茫之境,倘若他不是因恐惧身後之事而使他犹豫不前?此境乃无人知晓之邦, 自古无返者。
所以,「理智」能使我们成为懦夫,而「顾虑」能使我们本来辉煌之心志变得黯然无光, 像个病夫。
再之, 这些更能坏大事, 乱大谋, 使它们失去魄力。
Romeo and Juliet罗密欧没有受过伤的才会讥笑别人身上的创痕。
（朱丽叶自上方窗户中出现）轻声！那边窗子里亮起来的是什么光？那就是东方，朱丽叶就是太阳！起来吧，美丽的太阳！赶走那妒忌的月亮，她因为她的女弟子比她美得多，已经气得面色惨白了。
既然她这样妒忌着你，你不要忠于她吧；脱下她给你的这一身惨绿色的贞女的道服，它是只配给愚人穿的。
那是我的意中人；啊！那是我的爱；唉，但愿她知道我在爱着她！她欲言又止，可是她的眼睛已经道出了她的心事。
待我去回答她吧；不，我不要太卤莽，她不是对我说话。
天上两颗最灿烂的星，因为有事他去，请求她的眼睛替代它们在空中闪耀。
要是她的眼睛变成了天上的星，天上的星变成了她的眼睛，那便怎样呢？她脸上的光辉会掩盖了星星的明亮，正像灯光在朝阳下黯然失色一样；在天上的她的眼睛，会在太空中大放光明，使鸟儿误认为黑夜已经过去而唱出它们的歌声。
瞧！她用纤手托住了脸，那姿态是多么美妙！啊，但愿我是那一只手上的手套，好让我亲一亲她脸上的香泽！朱丽叶唉！罗密欧她说话了。

斯宾塞《爱情小唱》第 75 首的韵律赏析
斯宾塞《爱情小唱》第75首的韵律赏析王晓丹1 杜梦臻1 苏楠楠21.河北医科大学外语教学部；2.河北医科大学国际合作与交流处，河北石家庄050017摘 要：斯宾塞是杰出的英国诗人，他的十四行诗集《爱情小唱》是英国文艺复兴时期最著名的十四行组诗之一，其独特的韵律宛如音乐家谱写的动人旋律，绚烂悦耳。
本文通过分析《爱情小唱》第75首的格律及音韵特征，探析“斯宾塞体”十四行诗的特点。
关键词：“斯宾塞体”十四行诗；《爱情小唱》；抑抑格；吻韵爱德蒙·斯宾塞（Edmund Spenser，1552-1599）是杰出的英国诗人。
他的诗作体裁丰富，用词典雅，音韵优美，格律严谨，对后世的英国诗人产生了深远的影响，被誉为“诗人之诗人”。
斯宾塞创作的十四行诗集《爱情小唱》（Amoretti）是英国文艺复兴时期最著名的三大十四行组诗之一，这部诗集共收集了89首爱情十四行诗，是诗人要献给一位名叫伊丽莎白的年轻姑娘。
这部诗集音乐性强，富于变化，既典雅，又清新，充分体现了“斯宾塞体”十四行诗的特点。
由于十四行诗的范围小且限制大，题材上一般也是歌颂爱情的，所以不易写得有新意，常常落入俗套。
可斯宾塞却能在这么狭小的空间中把诗做得工整自然，用词洗练，结构巧妙，音调铿锵悦耳，实在令人惊叹[1]。
下面这首诗是《爱情小唱》中的第75首，从中可以管窥斯宾塞体十四行诗的音韵特征。

Sonnet 75 Edmund Spenser
Sonnet 75 Edmund SpenserOne day I wrote her name upon the strand,But came the waves and washed it away; Agayne i wrote it with a second hand,But came the tyde, and made my paynes his prey. "Vayne man, sayd she, "that doest in vaine assay, A mortall thing so to immortalize,For I my selve shall lyke to decay,And eek my name bee wyped out lykewize." "Not so," quod I , "let baser things devize,To dy in dust, but you shall live by fame:My verse your vertues rare shall eternize,And in the heavens wryte your glorious name. Where whenas death shall all the world subdew, Our love shall live, and later life renew."Sonnet 18 William ShakespeareShall 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 shinesAnd often is his gold complexion dimmed;And every fair from fair sometimes declines,By chance or nature's changing course untrimmed; But thy eternal summer shall not fade,Nor lose possession of that fair thou ow'st;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.Sonnet 29 William ShakespeareWhen, in disgrace with fortune and men's eyes,I all alone beweep my outcast state,And trouble deaf heaven with my bootless cries, And look upon myself, and curse my fate, Wishing me like to one more rich in hope, Featured like him, like him with friends possessed, Desiring this man's art and that man's scope,With what I most enjoy contented least;Yet in these thoughts myself almost despising, Haply I think on thee--and then my state,Like to the lark at break of day arisingFrom sullen earth, sings hymns at heaven's gate; For thy sweet love rememb'red such wealth brings That then I scorn to change my state with kings.Song John DonneGo, and catch a falling star,Get with child a mandrak root,Tell me, where all past years are,Or who cleft the Devil's foot,Teach me to hear mermaids singing,Or to keep off envy's stinging,And findWhat windServes to advance an honest mind.If thou beest born to strange sights,Things invisible to see,Ride ten thousand days and nights,Till age snow white hairs on thee,Thou, when thou return'st, wilt tell meAll strange wonders that befell thee,And swearNo whereLives a woman true, and fair.If thou find'st one, let me know,Such a pilgrimage were sweet;Yet do not, I would not go,Though at next door we might meet; Though she were true when you met her,And last till you write your letter,Yet sheWill beFalse, ere I come, to two, or three.The Flea John DonneMark but this flea, and mark in this,How little that which thou deniest me is;Me it sucked first, and now sucks thee,And in this flea our two bloods mingled be; Thou know'st that this cannot be saidA sin, or shame, or loss of maidenhead,Yet this enjoys before it woo,And pampered swells with one blood made of two, And this, alas, is more than we would do.Oh stay, three lives in one flea spare,Where we almost, nay more than married, are.This flea is you and I, and thisOur marriage bed and marriage temple is;Though parents grudge, and you, we are met,And cloistered in these living walls of jet,Though use make you apt to kill meLet not to that, self-murder added be,And sacriledge, three sins in killing three.Cruel and sudden, hast thou sincePurpled thy nail, in blood of innocence?Wherein could this flea guilty be,Except in that drop which it sucked from thee?Yet thou triumph'st, and say'st that thouFind'st not thy self nor me the weaker now;'Tis true, then learn how false fears be;Just so much honor, when thou yield'st to me,Will waste, as this flea's death took life from thee.To the Virgins, to Make Much of TimeRobert HerrickGather ye rose-buds while ye may,Old time is still a-flying;And this same flower that smiles today,Tomorrow will be dying.The glorious lamp of heaven, the sun,The higher he's a-getting,The sooner will his race be run,And nearer he's to settiing.That age is best which is the first,When youth and blood are warmer;But being spent, the worse, and worstTimes still succeed the former.Then be not coy, but use your time,And, while ye may, go marry;For, having lost but once your prime,You may forever tarry.Elegy Written in a Country ChurchyardThomas GrayThe curfew the knell of parting day,The lowning herd wind slowly o'er the lea,The plowman homeward plods his weary way,And leaves the world to darkness and to me.Now fades the glimmering landscape on the sight, And all the air a solemn stillness holds,Save where the beetle wheels his droning flight, And drowsy tinklings lull the distant folds;Save that from yonder ivy-mantled towerThe moping owl does to the moon complainOf such, as wandering near her secret bower, Molest her ancient solitary reign.Beneath those rugged elms, that yew tree's shade, Where heaves the turf in many a moldering heap, Each in his narrow cell forever laid,The rude forefathers of the hamlet sleep.The breezy call of incense-breathing Morn,The swallow twittering from the straw-built shed, The cock's shrill clarion, or the echoing horn,No more shall rouse them from their lowly bed.For them no more the blazing hearth shall burn,Or busy housewife ply her evening care;No children run to lisp their sire's return,Or climb his knees the envied kiss to share.Oft did the harvest to their sickle yield,Their furrow oft the stubborn glebe has broke; How jocund did thy drive their team afield!How bowed the woods beneath their sturdy stroke!Let not Ambition mock their useful toil,Their homely joys, and destiny obscure;Nor Grandeur hear with a disdainful smileThe short and simple annals of the poor.The boast of heraldry, the pomp of power,And all that beauty, all that wealth e'er gave, Awaits alike the inevitable hour.The paths of glory lead but to the grave.Nor you, ye proud, impute to these the fault,If Memory o'er their tomb no trophies raise, Where through the long-drawn aisle and fretted vault The pealing anthem swells the note of praise.Can storied urn or animated bustBack to its mansion call the fleeting breath?Can Honor's voice provoke the silent dust,Or Flattery soothe the dull cold ear of Death?Perhaps in this neglected spot is laidSome heart once pregnant with celestial fire; Hands that the rod of empire might have swayed,Or waked to ecstasy the living lyre.But Knowledge to their eyes her ample pageRich with the spoils of time did ne'er unroll;Chill Penury repressed their noble rage,And froze the genial current of the soul.Full many a gem of purest ray serene,The dark unfathomed caves of ocean bear;Full many a flower is born to blush unseen,And waste its sweetness on the desert air.Some village Hampden, that with dauntless breast The little tyrant of his fields withstood;Some mute inglorious Milton here may rest,Some Cromwell guiltless of his country's blood.The applause of listening senates to command,The threats of pain and ruin to despise,To scatter plenty o'er a smiling land,And read their history in a nation's eyes,Their lot forbade: nor circumscribed aloneTheir growing virtues, but their crimes confined; Forbade to wade through slaughter to a throne,And shut the gates of mercy on mankind,The struggling pangs of conscious truth to hide,To quench the blushes of ingenuous shame,Or heap the shrine of Luxury and PrideWith incense kindled at the Muse's flame.Far from the madding crowd's ignoble strife,Their sober wishes never learned to stray;Along the cool sequestered vale of lifeThey kept the noiseless tenor of their way.Yet even these bones from insult to protectSome frail memorial still erected nigh,With uncouth rhymes and shapeless sculpture decked, Implores the passing tribute of a sigh.Their name, their years, spelt by the unlettered Muse, The place of fame and elegy supply:And many a holy text around she strews,That teach the rustic moralist to die.For who to dumb Forgetfulness a prey,This pleasing anxious being e'er resigned,Left the warm precincts of the cheerful day,Nor cast one longing lingering look behind?On some fond breast the parting soul relies,Some pious drops the closing eye requires;Even from the tomb the voice of Nature cries,Even in our ashes live their wonted fires.For thee, who mindful of the unhonoured deadDost in these lines their artless tale related;If chance, by lonely contemplation led,Some kindred spirit shall inquire thy fate,Haply some hoary-headed swain may say,"oft have we seen him at the peep of dawn Brushing with hasty steps the dews awayTo meet the sun upon the upland lawn."There at the foot of yonder nodding beechThat wreathes its old fantastic roots so high,His listless length at noontide would he stretch,And pore upon the brook that babbles by."Hard by yon wood, now smiling as is scorn, Muttering his wayward fancies he would rove,Now drooping, woeful wan, like one forlorn,Or crazed with care, or crossed in hopeless love."One moment I missed him on the customed hill, Along the heath and near his favourite tree; Another came; nor yet beside the rill,Nor up the lawn, nor at the wood was he;"The next with dirges due in sad arraySlow through the churchway path we say him borne. Approach and read ( for thou canst read) the lay, Graved on the stone beneath yon aged thorn."THE EPITAPHHere rests his head upon the lap of EarthA youth to Fortune and to Fame unknown.Fair Science frowned not on his humble birth,And Melancholy marked him for her own.Large was his bounty, and his soul sincere,Heaven did a recompense as largely send:He gave to Misery all he had, a tear,He gained from Heaven ('twas all he wish'd) a friend.No father seek his merits to disclose,Or draw his frailties from their dread abode (There they alike in trembling hope response),The bosom of his Father and his God.London William BlakeI wander thro each charter'd street,Near where the charter'd Thames does flow,And mark in every face I meetMarks of weakness, marks of woe.In every cry of every Man,In every Infant's cry of fear,In every voice, in every ban,The mind-forg'd manacles I hear.How the chimney-sweeper's cryEvery blackning church appalls;And the hapless Soldier's sighRuns in blood down Palace walls.But most thro' midnight streets I hearHow the youthful Harlot's curseBlasts the new-born Infant's tear,And blights with plagues the Marriage hearse.A Red, Red Rose Robert BurnsO my luve's like a red, red rose,That's newly sprung in June;O my luve's like the melodieThat's sweetly play'd in tune.As fair art thou, my bonie lass,So deep in luve am I;And I will luve thee still, my dear,Till a' the seas gang dryTill a' the seas gang dry, my dear,And the rocks melt wi' the sun;O I will luve thee still , my dear,While the sands o' life shall run.And fare thee weel, my only luve,And fare thee weel a while!And I will come again, my luve,Tho' it were ten thousand mile.The Solitary Reaper William WordsworthBehold her, single in the field,Yon solitary Highland Lass!Reaping and singing by herself;Stop here, or gently pass!Alone she cuts and binds the grain,And sings a melancholy strain;O listen! For the Vale profoundIs overflowing with the sound.No nightingale did ever chauntMore welcome notes to weary bandsOf travelers in some shady haunt, Among Arabian sands;A voice so thrilling ne'er was heardIn springtime from the cuckoo birds, Breaking the silence of the seasAmong the farthest Hebrides.Will no one tell me what she sings? Perhaps the plaintive numbers flowFor old, unhappy, far-off things,And battles long ago;Or is it some more humble lay,Familiar matter of today?Some natural sorrow, loss, or pain,That has been, and may be again?Whate'er the theme, the Maiden sangAs if her song could have no ending;I saw her singing at her work,And o'er the sickle bendingI listened, motionless and still;And, as I mounted up the hill,The music in my heart I bore,Long after it was heard no more.I Wandered Lonely as a CloudWillaim WordsworthI wandered lonely as a cloudThat floats on high o'er vales and hills, When all at once I saw a crowd,A host, of golden daffodils;Beside the lake, beneath the trees, Fluttering and dancing in the breeae.Continuous as the stars that shineAnd twinkle on the milky way,They stretched in never-ending lineAlong the margin of a bay:Ten thousand saw I at a glance,Tossing their heads in sprightly dance.The waves beside them danced; but they Outdid the sparkling waves in glee;A poet could not but be gay,In such a jocund company;I gazed--and gazed--but little thoughtWhat wealth the show to me had brought:For oft, when on my couch I lieIn vacant or in pensive mood,They flash upon that inward eyeWhich is the bliss of solitude;And then my heart with pleasure fills,And dances with the daffodils.She Dwelt Among the Untrodden WaysWillaim WordsworthShe dwelt among the untrodden waysBeside the springs of Dove,A Maid whom there were none to praiseAnd very few to love;A violet by a mossy stoneHalf hidden from the eye!--Fair as a star, when only oneIs shinning in the sky.She lived unknown, and few could know When Lucy ceased to be,But she is in her grave, and, oh,The difference to me!When We Two PartedGeorge Gordon, Lord ByronWhen we two partedIn silence and tears,Half broken-heartedTo sever for years,Pale grew thy cheek and cold,Colder thy kiss;Truly that hour foretoldSorrow to this.The dew of the morningSunk chill on my brow--It felt like the warningOf what I feel now.Thy vows are all broken,And light is thy fame;I hear thy name spoken,And share in its shame.They name thee before me,A knell to mine ear;A shudder comes o'er me--Why wert thou so dear?They know not I know thee,Who knew thee too well--Long, long shall I rue thee,Too deeply to tell.In secret we met--In silence I grieve,That thy heart could forget,Thy spirit deceive.If I should meet theeAfter long years,How should I greet thee?--With silence and tears.She Waks in BeautyGeorge Gordon, Lord Byron1She walks in beauty, like the nightOf cloudless climes and starry skies; And all that's best of dark and bright Meet in her aspect and her eyes: Thus mellowed to that tender lightWhich heaven to gaudy day denies.2One shade the more, one ray the less, Had half impaired the nameless graceWhich waves in every raven tress,Or softly lightens o'er her face;Where thoughts serenly sweet expressHow pure, how dear their dwelling place.3And on that cheek, and o'er that brow,So soft, so calm, yet eloquent,The smiles that win, the tints that glow,But tll of days in goodness spent,A mind at peace with all below,A heart whose love is innocent!From To a Sky-LarkPercy Bysshe ShelleyHail to thee, blithe Spirit!Bird thou never wert--That from Heaven, or near it,Pourest thy full heartIn profuse strains of unpremeditated art.Higher still and higherFrom the earth thou springstLike a cloud of fire;The blue deep thou wingest,And singing still dost soar, and soaring ever singest.。
莎士比亚十四行诗第七十五、第七十六首
莎士比亚十四行诗第七十五、第七十六首75对我而言，你是我生命的食粮，或是滋润大地急需的甘霖；为你的安宁我心中不尽彷徨，就像吝啬鬼暴露了财富而惊恐莫名；他现在为财富而骄傲，可随即，又会怀疑这贪婪的时代会窃取他的珍宝；时而觉得应该单独拥有你，时而又觉得应该将你当众夸耀；有时感觉看你看得太多，渐又饿到向你偷偷凝视；我不想有也不想求任何快乐，除非你已经或者即将给我的一切。
这样我终日活在在饥渴与腻食之间，时而饥不择食，时而食不下咽。
Sonnet 75So are you to my thoughts as food to life,Or as sweet-season'd showers are to the ground; And for the peace of you I hold such strifeAs 'twixt a miser and his wealth is found;Now proud as an enjoyer and anonDoubting the filching age will steal his treasure, Now counting best to be with you alone,Then better'd that the world may see my pleasure; Sometime all full with feasting on your sightAnd by and by clean starved for a look; Possessing or pursuing no delight,Save what is had or must from you be took. Thus do I pine and surfeit day by day,Or gluttoning on all, or all away.76为何我的诗总缺乏新意没有变化，更无灵动情思为何我对风尚不屑一视对那新奇的手法和诡谲的组辞为何我的笔法总千篇一律所有创作都披着一副外衣每字每句都似刻着我的名字表明它的身份和来历哦，我的爱人，你知道的，我写的只有你惟有你和爱情是我永恒的主题我最能做的是将旧章换上新词一遍遍写，一遍遍轮回便如太阳每日重复升起我对你的爱也将永远诉说Sonnet 76Why is my verse so barren of new pride,So far from variation or quick change?Why with the time do I not glance asideTo new-found methods and to compounds strange? Why write I still all one, ever the same,And keep invention in a noted weed,That every word doth almost tell my name, Showing their birth and where they did proceed? O, know, sweet love, I always write of you,And you and love are still my argument;So all my best is dressing old words new, Spending again what is already spent:For as the sun is daily new and old,So is my love still telling what is told.。

Sonnet_75
Analysis
Therefore, in the following line, poet said:” My verse your virtues rare shall eternize”. “Virtues rare shall eternize”. That is right. The body of human is destined to disappear whereas the spirit, the virtue of human can be immortal. The true love can be immortal.

胡家峦 译
有一天，我把她的名字写在沙滩上，
大浪冲来，把那个名字洗去； 我把她的名字再一次写上，
潮水来了，又将我的辛苦一口吞掉。
“自负的人，”她说，“你这只是徒劳， 妄想使世间凡俗之事不朽；
他日我也会像这样烟消云散，
我的名字也将会化为乌有。 “不，”我说，“卑劣者费尽计谋” 而仍归于一死，你却会声名永留： 我的诗笔将使你的美德长留， 并把你光辉的名字写在天国。 死亡可以征服整个世界， 我们的爱将长存，使生命永不枯朽。
死亡之路，但你将靠美名而永活：

• love and sea image Spenser's love poem seldom separate from the ocean image. All change except the true love.
Feature
• Metaphor.The use of image is the most highlight in this poem. The wave's ebb and flow symbolizes the human's life. The image --sea is contraditory, both the living and death. Only the love won't change, because poem makes it eternal.
My verse your virtues rare shall eternize,
And in the heavens write your glorious name.

而你将以美名永存世上 ：
