Sonnet 29 and porphyrias love are similar because love is presented in both of these poems, sonnet 29 is very sexual and the love doesn’t seem as real as it does in porphyrias love, porphyrias love is a unpredictable poem because one moment they seem to be very intimate but then in the next scene the male strangles porphyria with her own hair.

What next?
Select at least two quotations from each poem that help to answer the question in the title and begin to compare the language devices. What are they? How do they change the meanings of each poem?
