Question

Brainiest guaranteed to the BEST and CORRECT answer.
In which of the following lines of Shakespeare's "Sonnet 18" do we find reverse word order?
A. So long lives this, and this gives life to thee.
B. Thou art more lovely and more temperate

D. Shall I compare thee to a Summer's day?

Answer 1

In Shakespeare's "Sonnet 18," the line with reverse word order is:

A. "So long lives this, and this gives life to thee."

The typical word order would be "This lives so long, and this gives life to thee." However, Shakespeare often used poetic license to manipulate word order for artistic and rhythmic effect.
