8. William Shakespeare is buried
in Holy Trinity Church in
Stratford-upon-Avon. His grave
carries his well-known epitaph:
Good friend, for
Jesus' sake forbear,
To dig the dust enclosed here
Blest be the man that spares
these
stones,
But cursed be he that moves my
bones.
9. Works
People analyze Shakespeare's life and works to understand
his long-lasting and broad appeal. His deep understanding of
human nature and a broad knowledge contributed to his
development of vivid and varied characters from many walks of
life and his creative use of language. Shakespeare's knowledge
included music, law, the Bible, military science, politics, the sea,
history, hunting, woodcraft, sports, and theater. In his literary
works, he wrote of Kings, drunkards, generals, pickpockets,
shepherds, hired killers and thugs, and philosophers. His
understanding of people and their nature enabled him to create
dramatic characters whose struggles and often failures
extended beyond the setting of his plays.
12. Poetry:
In his poetry, the Sonnets are considered
as the exotic flowers in British poetry
world that times. Shakespeare's sonnets
comprise a collection of 154 poems in the
sonnet form by William Shakespeare. Their
themes are love, beauty, poetry and the
effects of time on all three. They were
probably written over a period of several
years, early in Shakespeare's literary
career.
13. Enjoying :
Shall I compare thee to a summer's day
Shall I compare thee to a summer's day?
Thou are 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 shines,
. And often is his gold complexion dimmed,
. And every fair from fair sometime declines,
By chance, or nature's changing course
untrimmed:
But thy eternal summer shall not fade,
.
14. Nor lose possession of that fair thou owest,
Nor shall death brag thou wanderest in his
shade,
When in eternal lines
to time thou growest,
So long as men can
breathe, or eyes can see,
So long lives this,
and this gives life to thee.
15. This is one of the most famous of all the sonnets,
justifiably so.perhaps in the early days of his love, there is no
such self-doubt and the eternal summer of the
youth is preserved forever in the poet's lines. The
poem also works at a rather curious level of
achieving its objective through dispraise. The
summer's day is found to be lacking in so many
respects (too short, too hot, too rough, sometimes
too dingy), but curiously enough one is left with
the abiding impression that 'the lovely boy' is in
fact like a summer's day at its best, fair, warm,
sunny, temperate, one of the darling buds of May,
and that all his beauty has been wonderfully
16. •My creation:
I lay my love on you.
Just a smile and the rain is gone,
Can hardly believe it;
Just a smile and the sun is out,
Can never believe it.
But this is true,
Only you and you alone can thrill
my heart with love.
My heartbeat will accelerate the
Moment I see you,
I never know that love could feel
So good.
You change my world
And I lay my love on you.
17. One sentence can express my
feeling :
A sincere love was once presented before
me .Yet I did not cherish its loss. Alas ,no
agony on earth could be compared with this.
If God will kindly give me more chance, I
will say to him: I love you .If there must
have a time frame to that love, I hope it
will stretch ten thousand years!
