FAREWELL LOVE

3. THOMAS WYATT’S
Biography

4. Farewell, love, and all thy laws forever,
Thy baited hooks shall tangle me no more.
Senece and Plato call me from thy lore
To perfect wealth, my wit for to endeavor.
In blind error when I did persever,
Thy sharp repulse that pricketh aye so sore
Taught me in trifles that I set no store,
But scape forth, since liberty is lever.
Therefore, farewell, go trouble younger hearts,
And in me claim no more authority;
With idle youth go use thy property,
And thereon spend thy many brittle darts.
For hitherto though I have lost my time,
Me list no longer rotten boughs to climb.

6. Farewell, Love, and all thy laws for ever:
Thy baited hooks shall tangle me no more.
Seneca and Plato call me from thy lore,
To perfect wealth my wit for to endeavor
goodbye for love and all its laws forever.
Love is not going to catch him
He is not going to be an easy target
He uses Seneca and Plato for (ALLUSION)
The virtue is a man control his desire.
The higher level is (reason) ,the lower level is (impulse).

7. In blind error when I did persever,
Thy sharp repulse, that pricketh aye so sore,
Hath taught me to set in trifles no store,
And scape forth, since liberty is lever
He is regretting that he was controlled by his emotions and this is a
blind mistake, he admits that he insisted on his mistake by following
his love.
The pain he got from his love taught him not to be trifle.
the pain taught him not to look at the silly things as love .

8. Therefore farewell, go trouble younger hearts,
And in me claim no more authority;
With idle youth go use thy property,
And thereon spend thy many brittle darts.
He is saying good bye to love. Love has no more authority on
him now. He is controlled by reason.
He asks love to go and use its hook to catch younger hearts.

9. For, hitherto though I've lost my time,
Me lusteth no longer rotten boughs to climb
Although he has lost time, now he has no desire to climb rotten trees.
He is going to perfect his wit, he is going to learn more and more.

10. Of the poemIMAGES
• “Baited hooks”
• “Thy Baited hooks”
• “Farewell Love” (personification).
(metaphor).
(metaphor).

11. The metaphor of ‘BAITED HOOKS’
works as an allegory for fishing,
but also presents as an oxymoron
in the ‘BAIT’ being the pleasure and the ‘HOOK’
being the painful consequence of the former

12. He uses his own culture
referring to
CUPID
THE GOD OF LOVE
in Greek
MYTHOLOGY
and his arrows of love

14. THEME
The main theme is : TRIAL OF ROMANTIC LOVE
Sonnet: Italian ,
octave ( 8 line stanza ) , sestet ( 6 lines stanza )
Stanza = rhyme scheme for numbers of lines .

15. TONE
soft sounds like soft
Os and Es

16. RHYME SCHEME
a b b a a b b a c d d c e e
Rhyme Scheme is the pattern in which the last to words in lines of poetry rhyme.
Rhyming lines are recorded with letters.
The first two lines that rhyme would be A;
the next two would be B; and so on.
The rhyming lines do not have to come right after another.

17. FORM
Thomas Wyatt was the first one to use the Italian forms of the sonnet .
The Italian form, in some ways the simpler of the two, usually projects
and develops a subject in the octave, then executes a turn at the
beginning of the sestet, which means that the sestet must in some way
release the tension built up in the octave .
In this poem he used the Petrarchan sonnet , named after Francesco
Petrarch the Italian poet .

18. • And it consists of fourteen lines break into an octave (or octet),
which usually rhymes Abba Abba, we can find this in the first eight
lines .
• And the sestet, which may rhyme CDD CEE , we can find this in the
last six lines .
