Question

Aurelian Townshend’s “dialogue betwixt” one of these people and Time is praised for its “faint, pleasing tinkle” in the last sentence of T. S. Eliot’s “The Metaphysical Poets.” One of these people will “fear not what men say” and “labor Night and Day” in a poem whose three stanzas each end with a resolution “to be” one of these people. William Jaggard used a “passionate” one of these people to title a book of twenty poems he published under Shakespeare’s (15[2])name. The question “have (15[1])not (*) saints lips, and [these people] too?” (10[1])is spoken (10[1])by a character who compares his lips to “two blushing” (10[1])examples (-5[1])of (10[1])them (10[2])in a sonnet (10[1])embedded (10[1])in Romeo and Juliet’s first meeting. A book titled for this sort of person includes songs about the Hill of Difficulty and the defeat of Apollyon. (10[1])For 10 points, (10[1])what sort of person (10[1])titles a book about Christian by John Bunyan? ■END■ (10[1])
