  9. 17th Century Pick-up Lines "Your words like musick please me" “You are a flame of beauty" “I, like a childe, will go by your directions" “Your fingers are made to quaver on a lute, your arms to hang about a ladies neck"

  10. Look at Romeo’s first reaction to Juliet… ‘O she doth teach the torches to shine bright’

  11. Focusing on imagery O, she doth teach the torches to burn bright! It seems she hangs upon the cheek of night Like a rich jewel in an Ethiope's ear; Beauty too rich for use, for earth too dear! So shows a snowy dove trooping with crows, As yonder lady o'er her fellows shows. The measure done, I'll watch her place of stand, And, touching hers, make blessed my rude hand. Did my heart love till now? forswear it, sight! For I ne'er saw true beauty till this night. Oh, she shows the torches how to burn bright! She stands out against the darkness like a jeweledearring hanging against the cheek of an African. Her beauty is too good for this world; she’s too beautiful to die and be buried. She outshines the other women like a white dove in the middle of a flock of crows. When this dance is over, I’ll see where she stands, and then I’ll touch her hand with my rough and ugly one. Did my heart ever love anyone before this moment? My eyes were liars, then, because I never saw true beauty before tonight.

  12. Write your own love poem using original imagery It seems she sparkles Like a can of pepsi in a school bag Oh, he doth teach Justin Bieber to sing Your beauty makes my iPhone stop working

  15. Peer Assess What Works Well: Well done Ira Wood. My favourite line includes two similes: “Hold hands like teenagers, fingers meshed like the teeth of rusty gears”. Even Better If: You need to check punctuation. See where I’ve corrected.
