hey Mr. Webb thank you ( and my teachers) for your lessons on English A and B I got a grade 1 in English A and grade 2 in English B. Continue doing what you are doing you are appreciated ❤❤❤❤❤❤
Our teacher uses your videos to teach us and I have to say I am amazed by your comprehension and analysis of every poem you've done. Also, thank you for the amazing and helpful analysis of the poems. It helps a lot.
I had watched your vids to do csec in june, ill find out my grade on monday. If i get a good grade, know that you are partially responsible. Thank you so much for what you do for us.
You're one of the best teacher of my life so far,,,your way of explaining things& exploring more and more ideas from textual interpretation is so brilliant....keep it up and please upload more videos regarding how to interpret the text with the help of literary devices in poetry and in fiction. GOD bless you and may you always be flourish at each and every step of your life irrespective to the limitations of space and time. Will be waiting for your response
The use of shall in "death shall be no more" vs shalt in "death thou shalt die" also supports the difference in address of the two parts of the line. 'Shalt' is only used with the second person singular. That is to say you can only say shalt when talking to 'you' or in this case 'thou' directly, as with (D)eath. Conversely, you can use 'shall' with all other persons/povs. So when he says "death shall be no more", he must, at the very least, not be talking to Death but about death.

Hello Mr.Webb ive been watching all your videos and ive studied about 16 poems so far and ive covered a good bit of the prose but i am struggling alot with Twelfth night
Thank you :) I read a poem many times when doing an analysis. Actually, I spend a considerable amount of time on every line and pay attention to every single word and their multiple meanings. Also, when analyzing, know what kind of information you are looking for (meaning, tone, mood, poetic devices, POV, etc.).
@@Englishoneononeahjackson Much appreciated! And if they have questions they'd like me to answer, encourage them to ask! On one hand, I try to be detailed, but on the other hand, I leave some things out so the videos don't get too long.
I have csec in june next yr and I watched the vids of the poems you did and i have to say its a big help so thank you, also are you doing landscape painter and the other poem we have different?
Thank you for this! This is very helpful because I am performing the Holy Sonnet of John Donne by Benjamin Britten. Britten set 9 of the poem to music. And I am going to sing them with acting. Do you by Chance have all the sonnets analysed?
Oh wow, I'd love to see that! Good luck with the performance. Unfortunately, this is the only sonnet I've touched on so far. I analyzed it because it is on my student's syllabus.

Good eye! Makes sense! Definitely, two different audiences are being addressed here.
Wow! Great analysis of this poem. Favorite video in this series so far.
Niiice! It's a pretty cool poem.
Very nice and engaging! There's a saying, "would you like to go to Heaven? The reply comes that yes," but first you have to die"
A profound saying that is!
Thank you so much for your great work...i have a presentation for this poem and you really help me to understand every single line
I'm happy to hear that! Good luck with your presentation:)

Reference from historical background of metaphysical poem.

Thank you!
great analysis as usual but out of curiosity , how do i begin to analyse poems as complex and thoroughly as you do?
Thank you :) I read a poem many times when doing an analysis. Actually, I spend a considerable amount of time on every line and pay attention to every single word and their multiple meanings. Also, when analyzing, know what kind of information you are looking for (meaning, tone, mood, poetic devices, POV, etc.).
Good Job Adam!!!
Thank you! 🙏 Thanks for watching 😉
@@AdamWebbCSEC you are welcome. I actually use some of your videos with my students. I like your calm delivery and your pacing is on point!
@@Englishoneononeahjackson Much appreciated! And if they have questions they'd like me to answer, encourage them to ask! On one hand, I try to be detailed, but on the other hand, I leave some things out so the videos don't get too long.
@@Englishoneononeahjackson In fact, I'd love to chat with your students sometime soon! Let's make it happen.
@@AdamWebbCSEC great! I have an idea. Where are you currently teaching?

Thanks for watching the videos! Be sure to ask questions if needed. I'll be covering the other 2 new poems in the coming weeks.

Definitely "It is the Constant Image of your Face".

Hi!!
Very nice and engaging! There's a saying, "would you like to go to Heaven? The reply comes that yes," but first you have to die"
Interesting saying! Everybody wants to go to heaven, but nobody wants to die.
