- No longer mourn for me when I am dead;
- Shakespeare uses this line to set the tone of his sonnet. The line automatically lets us know this sonnet is about the inevitable death of a possible loved one. This line is used to tell the person Shakespeare is directing this too that they can mourn their death as they die but not afterwards. This line sets the writer with an unemotional tone of voice regarding his death. The speaker urges the lover not to dwell on their death because if not it will only bring misery. This sonnet can be perceived as a dark romantic gesture to the lover.
- Nay, if you read this line, remember not The hand that writ it; for I love you so That I in your sweet thoughts would be forgot If thinking of me should make you woe.
- This line indicates a romantic relationship between the speaker and the lover. The speaker is directly telling the lover to not remember him even though he loves them so dearly, he would rather them not worry about his death. This line is important because it further illustrates the theme of love and inevitable death within the sonnet. Although, at the time of writing the letter the man is not dead yet, he understands it is coming and would rather his lover not dwell on a death that is set to happen no matter what. The speaker has accepted his death and urges his lover to do the same because he knows it will only bring pain to the lover. This develops theme by demonstrating the love between the speaker and his lover.
- A poetic device used within the poem is apostrophe. Apostrophe is a form of figure of speech where a poet is addressing someone or something the reader does not know. This poetic device is established within the opening lines. The poet is addressing a lover that the reader does not know. The apostrophe is present throughout the entire sonnet as the poem is dedicated to a lover by using a second person point of view. By using apostrophes in poems and sonnets this draws the attention of the reader to experience a connection with the poet.
- The turn in this sonnet is found in line 13 which refocuses the poem. In the first 12 lines of the poem the speaker is very reassuring to whoever he is writing to. The speaker during the first three quatrains uses an encouraging tone in order to reassure that things will be okay for the lover once the speaker dies. However, line 13 shifts the tone from reassuring to alarming. The tone becomes much harsher by the speaker telling his lover that there will be consequences if the lover does not take the speaker's advice.
- This line starts the "turn" of the sonnet changing the tone within the poem. The tone changes from reassuring to alarming. The speaker is telling the lover to let their love for them die with the speaker. This is because he does not wish the people of the world to pry into the lover's grief. The speaker is able to accept his death and wishes his lover to do the same.
- Lest the wise world should look into your moan,
- And mock you with me after I am gone.
- HAHAHA!
- The last sentence of the sonnet leaves both the reader and the lover with a bittersweet mood. The speaker is telling the lover if they choose not to follow their advice people will mock them with his death. This ends the sonnet with a startling tone compared to the reassuring tone that it started with.
- The theme of this sonnet is love and accepting impending death. From the start of the poem it is indicating that this is meant for a lover. As indicated by Shakespeare saying, "The hand that writ it; for I love you so". The theme of accepting impending death is set in tone by Shakespeare writing "No longer mourn for me when I am dead Than you shall hear the surly sullen bell". Although the speaker acknowledges that the mourning process after death can be hard he has come to terms to accept it, and wishes his lover to do the same.
