There ar many differences between the two sonnets the first difference is when they were written Christina Rossetti wrote Remember.For my seek I shall be comparing 2 sonnets, one written earlier 1914and the other which was written after 1914. A sonnet is a numbers alone issorted into two sections, the octave and the sextette. The octavecontains eight lines and the sixer contains six lines, so altogetherthere are fourteen lines in a sonnet. In the octave and the sestetthere is always a mixed bag of meaning.The first sonnet I am going to looking for at is Remember which is writtenby Christina Rossetti before 1914. This sonnet duologue about death andlove. In the octave Christina Rossetti is saying remember me but inthe sestet she is saying forget about me, this is what is meant by transplant of meaning in the octave and sestet. The second sonnet I shallbe looking is called Sonnet which is written after 1914. This sonnetis written by Edna St. Vincent Millay. Sonnet is about p ast love andnot having anyone too love. In the octave she talks about the past butin the sestet she talks about the present. This is anotherdemonstration of how the meaning has changed in the octave and sestet.The language used in Remember is very forceful as she repeatedlyinsists her partner remember her. She also covers the word death byusing different phrases and metaphors like I am gone away andsilent land this shows that she is scared of dying but has learnt toexcept it. When you kindle no more than hold me by the hand. This quoteshows that the soulfulness Christina Rossetti is writing to is very close,considering that she is a Victorian lady she can not talk moreintimately. Christina Rossetti uses phrases to make it no sound as darkNor I half turn to go, yet turning stay. This is permit her partnerknow that once she has gone she cant return. Another way ChristinaRossetti covers up the word death is by saying Remember me when nomore. This quote is also being forceful as s he is again imperativeness forher partner to remember her. In the sestet there is a change ofmeaning. Yet, This shows that the writer Christina Rossetti hasrealised what the consequence could be if her partner decides to keep up with her wishes in the octave, so she decides to change hermind and tell her partner that Id kind of you forget me and be happythan remember me and be sad, Better by far you should forget and
