WILLIAM SHAKESPEARE
Sonnet 73
That time of year thou mayst in me behold
When yellow leaves, or none, or few, do hang
Upon those boughs which shake against the cold,
Bare [ruin’d] choirs, where late the sweet birds sang.
In me thou seest the twilight of such day
As after sunset fadeth in the west,
Which by and by black night doth take away,
Death’s second self, that seals up all in rest.
In me thou seest the glowing of such fire
That on the ashes of his youth doth lie,
As the death-bed whereon it must expire,
Consum’d with that which it was nourish’d by.
This thou perceiv’st, which makes thy love more strong,
To love that well, which thou must leave ere long.

SHERWOOD ANDERSON
Paper Pills
1 He was an old man with a white beard and huge nose and hands. Long before the time during which we will know him, he was a doctor and drove a jaded white horse from house to house through the streets of Winesburg. Later he mamed a girl who had money. She had been left a large fertile farm when her father died. The girl was quiet, tall, and dark, and to many people she seemed very beautiful. Everyone in Winesburg wondered why she married the doctor. Within a year after the marriage she died.
PART THREE: ESSAY WRITING (40%)
Read the following excerpt and write a comment in essay form in about 350 words.
1 The word for ‘biography’ has been universal in all European languages for the last two hundred years. Since it is derived from the Greek root ‘bios’ meaning life, there appears to be some serious error in my title. Surely I mean, ‘Biography and Life’?
(Biography and Death---The text of the 1997 Huizinga Lecture by Richard Holmes)
