【非選題】 1. Below is John Donne's "A hymn to God the Father."Examine the images, rhyme, and thythm in the
poem to explain what the narrator thinks to be the relation between sin and fear and between death and
life, and comment on how these poetic expressions help convey the narrator's tone and arouse various
emotions among readers (30%). Wilt thou forgive that sin where I begun, Which was my sin, though it were done before?
Wilt thou forgive that sin, through which I run,
And do run still, though still I do deplore? When thou hast done, thou hast not done,
For I have more. Wilt thou forgive that sin which I have won Others to sin, and made my sin their door?
Wilt thou forgive that sin which I did sbun A year or two, but wallow'd in, a score?
When thou hast done, thou hast not done,
For I have more. I have a sin of fear, that when I have spun
My last thread, I shall perish on the shore; But swear by thyself, that at my death thy Son Shall shine as he shines now, and heretofore; And, having done that, thou hast done, I fear no more.
