The line is, "If hairs be wires, black wires grow on her head."
He Had a black mistress My mistress' eyes are nothing like the sun (Sonnet 130) by William ShakespeareMy mistress' eyes are nothing like the sun; Coral is far more red than her lips' red; If snow be white, why then her breasts are dun; If hairs be wires, black wires grow on her head. I have seen roses damasked, red and white, But no such roses see I in her cheeks; And in some perfumes is there more delight Than in the breath that from my mistress reeks. I love to hear her speak, yet well I know That music hath a far more pleasing sound; I grant I never saw a goddess go; My mistress when she walks treads on the ground. And yet, by heaven, I think my love as rare As any she belied with false compare.
I am not sure but I want to no if alvocotos have hairs
1. Perhaps they are so hair brained. 2. They always like to split hairs.
It's a hyperbole.
Because he was hungry. The bare bear took the pairs of pear-shaped hare hairs to the fair fair to barter for stolen stollen.
The relevant lines say:And in some perfumes is there more delightThan in the breath that from my mistress reeks.Though the word "reeks" suggests an unpleasant smell in modern English, it usually did not in Shakespeare's time. He used it to mean "exudes" or "emanates". Here, then, he is likening the mistress' breath to a scent - one which is less delightful than some, but is not necessarily unpleasant.
My mistress' eyes are nothing like the sun;Coral is far more red than her lips' red;If snow be white, why then her breasts are dun;If hairs be wires, black wires grow on her head.I have seen roses damask'd, red and white,But no such roses see I in her cheeks;And in some perfumes is there more delightThan in the breath that from my mistress reeks.I love to hear her speak, yet well I knowThat music hath a far more pleasing sound;I grant I never saw a goddess go;My mistress, when she walks, treads on the ground:And yet, by heaven, I think my love as rareAs any she belied with false compare.

Like many of Shakespeare's sonnets, this poem is an expression of love. In order to express your love, you have to talk about it, define it, examine it. In telling his mistress that he loves her, In Sonnet 130, the theme "Women and Femininity" is connected to the idea of appearances. This poem is all about female beauty and our expectations and stereotypes about the way women ought to look. You know how in magazines women pretty much tend to look the same? They all fit into a very narrow definition of what is beautiful. Essentially, the speaker in this poem is pointing out that love poetry does the same thing. It makes women into goddesses, not real human beings. He insists that his idea of beautiful femininity doesn't depend on fitting an abstract, unrealistic fantasy. "Appearances" is a major theme in Sonnet 130, since our speaker 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. He doesn't say anything at all about her personality, but instead sticks to his laundry list of problems with her appearance. This gives Shakespeare a chance to poke fun at our obsession with looks and to show how ridiculous it is to ask any person to live up to some ideal of perfect beauty.
Figurative language is any kind of language where the words do not mean precisely (literally) what they say. Shakespeare's Sonnet 116 is not an obvious sonnet to choose for examples of figurative language (for a number of reasons): but when Shakespeare says that he does not want to 'admit impediment' to Love, that is an example of figurative language. He does not literally mean that he worries that Love might stumble over something, he just says that he is not going to criticise true love in any way. Similarly, later, when he calls love a 'star to every wandering bark' he does not literally mean that Love appears in the night sky; he means that love is how we navigate our lives - so this is also figurative language. There is more figurative language in this sonnet, but now that you know what you are looking for - you will probably be able to find your own.
Couplets can be used in multiple forms of poetry. For example, a Shakespearean sonnet makes use of it. A sonnet has three quatrains followed by a couplet. The rhyming scheme is ABAB, CDCD, EFEF, GG. Here's an example of one of Shakespeare's sonnets. Notice the final two lines as a couplet:My mistress' eyes are nothing like the sun;Coral is far more red than her lips' red;If snow be white, why then her breasts are dun;If hairs be wires, black wires grow on her head.I have seen roses damasked, red and white,But no such roses see I in her cheeks;And in some perfumes is there more delightThan in the breath that from my mistress reeks.I love to hear her speak, yet well I knowThat music hath a far more pleasing sound;I grant I never saw a goddess go;My mistress when she walks treads on the ground.And yet, by heaven, I think my love as rareAs any she belied with false compare.Couplets are also used on their own in order to make a quick little poem with a simple but clever structure.

The most famous love sonnets in English are those by Shakespeare (though there are many more). Among his best is sonnet 130: My mistress' eyes are nothing like the sun; Coral is far more red than her lips' red; If snow be white, why then her breasts are dun; If hairs be wires, black wires grow on her head. I have seen roses damasked, red and white, But no such roses see I in her cheeks; And in some perfumes is there more delight Than in the breath that from my mistress reeks. I love to hear her speak, yet well I know That music hath a far more pleasing sound; I grant I never saw a goddess go; My mistress when she walks treads on the ground. And yet, by heaven, I think my love as rare As any she belied with false compare.
Robert Hooke used a crude microscope to examine a thin slice of cork, where he discovered and coined the term "cell" in 1665. He observed small box-like structures, which he likened to the cells in a monastery, leading to the establishment of the cell theory.
