Question

Which of the following lines from Shakespeare's Sonnet 130 most strongly that the narrator does not think the dark

lady Is particularly attractive? Select all that apply.
I grant I never saw a goddess go
Coral is far more red than her lips' red
My mistress' eyes are nothing like the sun
My mistress, when she walks, treads on the ground

Answer 1

• Coral is far more red than her lips' red

• My mistress' eyes are nothing like the sun

• My mistress, when she walks, treads on the ground

Step-by-step explanation:

In this sonnet, the speaker tells us of how his lover is not very attractive but that he loves her more than anything that is more attractive than her.

He talks about how her lips are not very red and how they are far from coral. He says her eyes are not like the sun which means that she doesn't have beautiful eyes.

Finally in a reference to how beautiful people walk as though they float, he talks about how his lover does not have this quality but instead walks on the ground.
