Response:

Women had to excuse men's emotions, particularly their anger.

Clarification:

Wishing you a pleasant day.

The final two lines of Shakespeare's sonnets can be summarized with these three points:

- These lines form a couplet: two rhyming lines that follow one another.

- They generally rhyme with each other, although exceptions can occur.

- They alter the rhythm of the sonnet: a Shakespearean sonnet consists of 14 lines, with the initial 12 divided into three quatrains of four lines each, where the theme and issue are introduced. The rhyme pattern here is abab cdcd efef, which is concluded in the final two lines that rhyme as gg.

For instance:

When I / do COUNT / the CLOCK / that TELLS / the TIME (Sonnet 12)

When IN / dis GRACE / with FOR / tune AND / men's EYES

I ALL / a LONE / be WEEP / my OUT/ cast STATE (Sonnet 29)

Shall I / com PARE/ thee TO / a SUM / mer's DAY?

Thou ART / more LOVE / ly AND / more TEM / per ATE (Sonnet 18)

John Brown was an American abolitionist who supported rebellion as a means to eradicate slavery in the United States. He faced charges of treason against the Commonwealth of Virginia for his unlawful actions, was convicted, and executed by hanging.

In the time leading up to his execution and following his conviction, a significant number of notable individuals campaigned financially and crafted speeches in his support. Notable amongst them was Ralph Waldo Emerson. Emerson depicted Brown as a relatable, ordinary person driven by strong beliefs to take action. This portrayal was meant to highlight Brown’s admirable qualities and generate empathy from the public by making a connection with themselves.
