Read the following excerpt from William Shakespeare's Sonnet 147 and fill in the blanks in the paragraph. My love is as a fever, longing still For that which longer nurseth the disease, Feeding on that which doth preserve the ill, Th’uncertain sickly appetite to please. My reason, the physician to my love, Angry that his prescriptions are not kept, Hath left me, and I, desperate, now approve Desire is death, which physic did except.

Respuesta :

uncontrolled

sanity

love

personification

death.


Answer:The speaker compares his love to a disease that is an uncontrolled. He goes on to say that even though love is destroying his sanity, he continues to love. He uses personification to portray reason, who, he says is angry at the speaker for not adopting its prescriptions. Thus reason has left him, and the poet agrees that the desire for love is equal to death.
