The Victorian Era 2 Test with complete solution
Compare Sonnet 43 to any modern love song of your choice and identify the differences
in their expression of love.
Your answer might include some of these comparisons:

The poet connects her passion to her profound spiritual experience when she says, "For
the ends of Being and ideal Grace." In contrast, a popular song now would depict love in
a more casual, everyday tone or treat it as a more emotional experience.
The rhythm created by the stress on syllables and the rhyme scheme in the sonnet give
it a musical quality, while modern-day songs usually use music to provide the rhythm
(although some also use rhyme and create a rhythm with the word choices).
The tone of the poem is deeply romantic. The the poet emphasizes the various ways in
which she loves her husband, associating with her love the virtue of "Grace" and the
purity of those people who shun praise: "I love thee purely, as they turn from Praise."
Modern love songs usually are humorous and sometimes passionate but more
lighthearted.
The poet uses various poetic techniques to emphasize the depth and range of her
feelings. The use of anaphora (repetition) with "I love thee" gives the poem a rhythm
and also creates an effect of strong feelings. Most of the imagery used by the poet is
abstract. She uses comparisons to faith, grief, and sincerity. She says, "I love thee with
the breath, / Smiles, tears, of all my life!" Modern love songs frequently use one
metaphor or another figurative device, and they often use exaggerated sentiments such
as "Our love will last to the end of time."
What specific images in Sonnet 43 support the idea that Browning loves her husband
with her entire being?
Your answer may note some or all of these images:

The poet uses images of dimensions to express the pervasive nature of her love: "I love
thee to the depth and breadth and height / My soul can reach, when feeling out of sight."
Barrett Browning uses images that convey basic needs to impress that her love is like a
necessity: "I love thee to the level of everyday's / Most quiet need, by sun and
candlelight."
Barrett Browning uses images of abstract feelings to convey the sincerity and purity of
her love: "I love thee freely, as men strive for Right; / I love thee purely, as they turn
from Praise."
She uses images of implicit faith to convey the strength of her love: "I love thee with a
love I seemed to lose / With my lost saints,--I love thee with the breath."
She mentions old grief and childhood faith to imply the purity and intensity of sorrow and
faith in childhood: "I love thee with the passion put to use / In my old griefs, and with my
childhood's faith."
How is a dramatic monologue well suited for presenting the Duke's character?
Your answer should address these points:

A dramatic monologue is often used by poets to lead a character in revealing something
personal. The fact that the Duke is a cruel and harsh person is revealed through his

, own words.
In the course of his monologue, the Duke exposes his own crime of killing his wife.
The Duke is arrogant and indulges in self-praise at every opportunity; his self-
aggrandizing words reveal his pride and arrogance.
How has Browning presented the main theme of the poem "My Last Duchess"?
A. Browning uses dramatic monologue to expose the Duke's cruel character and the
fact that he is a murderer.
B. Browning uses the literary technique of enjambment to shock readers as they
discover the Duke's true nature.
C. Browning establishes the theme using the setting of an aristocrat's castle.
D. Browning makes use of strict iambic pentameter to denote the theme of control.
A. Browining uses dramatic monologue to expose the Duke's cruel character and the
fact that he is a murderer.
Explanation:
The dramatic monologue is used to expose the character inadvertently through his
speech.
How does Browning describe the Duke to make him more appealing to the reader
despite his unlikable personality? What literary elements does Browning employ to get
the reader to identify with the Duke? Use evidence from the text to support your
response.
Sample Answer:

The direct speech of the dramatic monologue is used to involve the reader in the scene.
The Duke's candidness and lack of self-consciousness in his description of his wife
make the reader interested in his speech. The aura of power and opulence and the
Duke's ancient family seem to make him attractive. The poet also uses the technique of
enjambment to create a sense of anticipation in the reader.
Which themes match the given lines from the poem "Dover Beach" by Matthew Arnold?
Tiles
helpless and lacking certainty of faith

the loss of faith
support and certainty of faith
Pairs

Upon the straits; on the French coast, the light
Gleams and is gone;

Was once, too, at the full, and round earth's shore
Lay like the folds of a bright girdle furled

Of the night-wind, down the vast edges drear
And naked shingles of the world.

Hath really neither joy, nor love, nor light,
Nor certitude, nor peace, nor help for pain;
