English Lit

We discussed the Restoration and looked at one of the first authentic female voices in English literature (authored by a woman), "To the Ladies" by Lady Mary Chudleigh.  Students must write a question (and answer) and do a quotation and literary device on this poem for Monday.  Monday's "quest" will only be 40 minutes.  The rest of the notes on the Restoration (to about page 349) will be due on Wednesday.
The words you will need to know are the following:
1. guile
2. venial
3. impious
4. satiate
5. ethereal
6. impetuous
7. ire
8. baleful
9. chide
10. apostate
11. precipice
12. obdurate
