    Steps for Annotating a Shakespearean Sonnet


    1. Read the sonnet TWICE before making any marks. 2. Outline the quatrains by placing a bracket around each. Then, place a bracket around the couplet. 3. Circle EVERY period in the sonnetthis will help you decipher where the author is completing his/her thought even when he/she switches quatrains or uses enjambment. 4. Make a note in the margin: Paraphrase each quatrain and the couplet in your own words. 5. Label rhyme scheme for each quatrain/couplet, and iambic pentameter for at least 2 lines. 6. Write in the margins: use a symbol (star, arrow, exclamation point, etc) and ALSO write a note: Indicate which words/lines/phrases/images/poetic devices seem particularly important in each quatrain of the sonnet. Write down a word/phrase/sentence about what makes it important (connect them to possible theme). 7. Make a note in the margin: What is the problem presented in the quatrains? What is the solution presented in the couplet? 8. Write at the bottom of the page: Write two-three sentences about what you think the authors theme (central message) is in this sonnet.

    18

    by William Shakespeare

    Shall I compare thee to a summer's day? Thou art more lovely and more temperate. Rough winds do shake the darling buds of May, And summer's lease hath all too short a date. Sometime too hot the eye of heaven shines, And often is his gold complexion dimmed; And every fair from fair sometime declines, By chance, or nature's changing course, untrimmed; But thy eternal summer shall not fade, Nor lose possession of that fair thou ow'st, Nor shall death brag thou wand'rest in his shade, When in eternal lines to Time thou grow'st. So long as men can breathe, or eyes can see, So long lives this, and this gives life to thee.
