    Although many scholars argue that “Milton writes sonnet [nine] to console and encourage [his lady friend, but] carefully eschews giving any advice [and only] pays her the compliment of merely describing with satisfaction what she has done,” (“Variorum Commentary”, Bush) this is one of many interpretations. The idea that Milton “consoles” and “encourages” his lady friend to be part of a religious institution is only visible on a surface level scan because if one reads in between the lines, he can see that Milton writes with his tongue-in-cheek. That is, Milton writes this sonnet out of pity for his lady friend because both the poem’s tone and allusions produce a left-handed praise in regards to her involvement with a religious institution. Also, the idea that Milton “eschews” himself from giving advice is misleading because near the end of the sonnet, the speaker voices his opinion on the lady’s devotion. Therefore, what scholars refer to, as Milton’s “encouragement” and “condolences,” is a mock-spur because the poem has a ring structure in which every encouraging-aspect comes with a negative double-entendre. “Lady that in the prime of earliest youth,/ Wisely hast shun’d the broad way and the green,” (1-2, Milton). The speaker presents the readers with a depiction of a young lady whom blocks out sinful destruction and (sexual) desires; that is to say, the maiden chooses to devote herself to a religious institution rather than live an immoral life. First, there are several…

    just don’t care. When something is wrong, people do not say anything for fear of being judged or getting in trouble. When all the facts do not add up, people turn a blind eye. The list could go on and on, but the point is, this kind of behavior is unacceptable, and people should learn to speak up. I learned this lesson the hard way. Unfortunately throughout my time in middle school, I was chronically bullied, especially during my 8th grade year. The offenses would be both verbal physical.…

    and completely different. It’s hard for me to wrap my head around the fact that someone who is fairly famous and someone who has no significance in this world can be alike in many ways. Having read this book a few years back, it was actually helpful to me. It may have been helpful in the most indirect way possible, but helpful nonetheless. The Glass Castle had a small part in helping me through my problems with depression and anxiety. It is very hard for me to write about this in many ways. 1,…
