The Imageries:

Forty winters shall besiege thy brow: visual, impact of time

Dip trenches in thy beautys field: visual, impact of ageing Deep-sunken eyes: visual This fair child of mine: visual New made when thou art old: visual Blood warm when thou feelst it cold: tactile

 Family: the whole point of this poem is to convince a young man to have kids Time: this sonnet bounces back and forth in time taking us from the present to forty years into the future and back again. Appearances: this poem portrays this young man has good look

Old Age: behind all of the talk of beauty, time, and kids, Sonnet 2 is the idea that we all get old and die.

The Imageries
Rosy lips and cheeks: visual
Within his bending sickles compass come: visual Love alters not with his brief hours and weeks: visual Although his height be taken: visual

Constant love Ideal love Enduring love Marriage

 Sonnet 130 is the poet's pragmatic tribute to his uncomely mistress. Commonly referred to as the dark lady because of her dun complexion. Basically, Sonnet 130 is clearly a parody of the conventional love sonnet, made popular by Petrarch in England.

 In lines 1-4, 7-10, examples of imagery are evident. Shakespeare uses this imagery because he is explaining that his mistress is far from beautiful. He is trying to implant the image of this woman in the readers mind.

 He says that her eyes do not shine, her lips are not red, she has dull skin, and bad hair. He also says that her breath smells bad, and her voice is rough. He uses these images so that the reader is able to see that this woman is not pleasant looking, but his love for her is still strong.

 Most of the images in Shakespeare's Sonnet 130 are visual. Note that the first six lines all provide sight images. E.g My mistress' eyes are nothing like the sun.

 I love to hear her speak, yet well I know That music hath a far more pleasing sound

 And in some perfumes is there more delight Than in the breath that from my mistress reeks.

 My mistress, when she walks, treads on the ground

 "Appearances" is a major theme in this poem. The poet spends a lot of the poem talking about what's wrong with his mistress's looks. He does a pretty complete dissection of her face, her body, and her smell.
