busy old fool, unruly sun,
why dost thou thus
through windows and through curtains call on us?
must to thy motions lovers' seasons run?
(john donne, "the sun rising”)

o stay, three lives in one flea spare,
where we almost, nay more than married are.
this flea is you and i, and this
our marriage bed, and marriage temple is;
though parents grudge, and you, we are met,
(john donne, "the flea")

on double pleasures: leave thy cold dispute
of what is fit and not. forsake thy cage,
thy rope of sands,

to walk, and pass our long love's day.
thou by the indian ganges' side
shouldst rubies find;

Read the excerpt from twelfth night, by william shakespeare. if music be the food of love, play on; give me excess of it, that, surfeiting, the appetite may sicken, and so die. that strain again! it had a dying fall: o, it came o'er my ear like the sweet sound, that breathes upon a bank of violets, stealing and giving odour! now read the excerpt from "the love song of j. alfred prufrock." for i have known them all already, known them all: have known the evenings, mornings, afternoons, i have measured out my life with coffee spoons; i know the voices dying with a dying fall beneath the music from a farther room. what does the phrase “dying fall” most likely mean in both excerpts? the noise is jarring. the noise is soothing. the sounds are fading. the sounds are too loud. mark this and return
