Question

which similarity do william shakespeares sonnet 130 and shwayzes song “perfect for me” have in common? both compare the loved one to beautiful things. both are only meant to be sung. both are written as sonnets. both use conventions of the blazon.

Explanation:

Shakespeare's Sonnet 130 and Shwayze's "Perfect for Me" both use the blazon, a poetic convention where the speaker catalogs the physical attributes of a loved - one. Sonnet 130 subverts the typical blazon by presenting a more realistic view of his mistress, while "Perfect for Me" likely uses the blazon in a more positive, conventional way to praise the loved - one. Sonnet 130 is not a song, Shwayze's work is not a sonnet, and Sonnet 130 is not only meant to be sung.

Answer:

D. Both use conventions of the blazon.
