Today you took your Vocab part II quiz and worked on an a-typical sonnet written by poet Henry Howard titled "Alas! So now all things do Hold their Peace."  We explicated together and shared our different interpretations and findings.  The rhyme scheme was unique, there was a sestet and then an octave, some sentences were not in iambic pentameter, and there was a heroic couplet!  Friday we will go back to looking closely at typical Shakespearean Sonnets!
