And I water it in fears, Night & morning with my tears: And I sunned it with smiles, And with soft deceitful wiles. And it grew both day and night, Till it bore an apple bright, And my foe beheld it shine, And he knew that it was mine. And into my garden stole. When the night had void the pole; In the morning glad I see; My foe outstretched beneath the tree. In the 1997 s...

Play King Lear Tragic Play
1,405 wordsKing Lear Is Man No More Than This? In literary works, critics often argue various points of view. Such is true in the tragic play King Lear written by Shakespeare. W. F. Blissett looks at the role of recognition in the play, and considers the difference, in that respect, between the main plot and the subplot. The second critic states that the play contains questions that are greater than the answers, and that, because the imbalance of life mirrors that, man is always insecure. Even though I agr...

Understanding Of Human Nature Point In The Story
1,904 wordsIn 1726, Jonathan Swift published a book for English readers. Primarily, however, Gulliver s Travels is a work of satire. Gulliver is neither a fully developed character nor even an altogether distinguishable persona; rather, he is a satiric device enabling Swift to score satirical points (Radio 124).
