Which two sets of lines in the poem illustrate that death's power is an illusion?

The sonnet sets the tone by confronting the fearsome nature of Death, quickly followed by questioning its genuine authority and influence. This is evident in the opening line "Death be not proud, though some have called thee Mighty and dreadful, for thou art not so; For those whom thou think'st thou dost overthrow Die not, poor Death, nor yet canst thou kill me".

As we proceed, the text draws attention to the fact that while Death is often seen as the one guiding souls to the other side, there are numerous more tangible threats to those still living, such as poison, war, and diseases. These are the true sources of fear. Death possesses no authentic power itself except to fulfill its role in connection to our actions and mishaps that ultimately lead us to it.

Another phrase that reflects Death's perceived power as being false is: "And death shall be no more; Death, thou shalt die."

Hope this is useful!
