1. define "sentinel" in a dictionary 2. look up "cuckoo" in Wikipedia 3. Think about what a sentinel does, and how a cuckoo is like that, with respect to summer. 4. Examine how that metaphor works in the context of The Seafarer poem. Where does it appear in the poem, and why? ---- In Anglo Saxon poetry (and several other medieval poetries) there was a special technique by which instead of directly naming a thing, the poet would describe it and leave the listener (or reader) to work it out.

The ocean is 'the whales' highway';

snow is 'the sifting from heaven's threshing floor';

a girl's hair is 'the golden hayrick over her ears'.

To call a cuckoo a 'summer sentinel' is an example of such a phrase. The technical term (in English) is a 'kenning'.

Next write something like HAGS (Have A Great Summer), HAKAS (Have A Kick A** Summer), KATS (Kick A** This Summer), etc. Usually, you shouldn't spell it out because they will think you think they don't know what it means or they will feel you are taking up too much space in their book. Also, don't be afraid to have anything about a bad word like in HAKAS, because they will not mind that much, unless you go to a well diciplined privat school (Kids in public schools are more inappropriate and rude, no offense.).

Don't take up too much space.

Sign it as John S. or John (First name Last initial or just First Name) Don't write your full name unless its small and if there is another person with your same first name.

[Your Name] is Awesome!

If you feel up to it, write a short message like this:

Dear [Their Name],

I had a great time with you in [class name]. I hope I see you next year!

-[First name + Last initial]

NEVER say anything negative about another person in your school because if they also sign the person's yearbook you signed, and they see something about them-self, they will get upset at you, and then it will spread through their friends and your friends that you are a jerk (believe me, this girl has been ticked off at another boy for the whole year.).

Remember, ALWAYS sign your name, and if you write HAGS, etc. draw a happy face, a star, or a heart.

Montresor states that he must not only punish Fortunato, but punish with impunity. To do this he also says " A wrong is unredressed when retribution overtakes its redresser. It is equally unredressed when the avenger fails to make himself felt as such to him who has done the wrong."

In other words, Montresor must exact his revenge without being caught by anyone but also in such a way that the person against whom the revenge is sought, understands full well that vengeance is being taken against him.

Eumaeus in Greek mythology cared for pigs.

One foot down, then hop! It's hot.

Good things for the ones that's got.

Another jump, now to the left.

Everybody for hisself.

In the air, now both feet down.

Since you black, don't stick around.

Food is gone, the rent is due,

Curse and cry and then jump two. All the people out of work,

Hold for three, then twist and jerk.

Cross the line, they count you out.

That's what hopping's all about. Both feet flat, the game is done.

They think I lost. I think I won.

No one really knows, not even Lewis Carroll himself.
