HELP ME PLEASE, I'LL GIVE YOU 30 POINTS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Read the following Shakespearean sonnet.

My mistress' eyes are nothing like the sun;
Coral is far more red than her lips' red;
If snow be white, why then her breasts are dun;
If hairs be wires, black wires grow on her head.
I have seen roses damasked, red and white,
But no such roses see I in her cheeks;
And in some perfumes is there more delight
Than in the breath that from my mistress reeks.
I love to hear her speak, yet well I know
That music hath a far more pleasing sound;
I grant I never saw a goddess go;
My mistress when she walks treads on the ground.
And yet, by heaven, I think my love as rare
As any she belied with false compare.

There are a few reasons why this is a sonnet. A sonnet is defined as having fourteen lines, uses any form of rhyme scheme and typically ten syllables per line. The above selection does have fourteen lines. By only allowing fourteen lines the sonnet is short but is able to still tell a story. The selection rhymes every other line. This rhyme pattern gives the sonnet a pattern and connects the lines together better. The use of ten syllables per line also adds to the overall rhythm.
