Read these lines from the sonnet.
“I love thee to the depth and breadth and height
My soul can reach, when feeling out of sight
For the ends of being and ideal grace.” (lines 2-4)
How does the speaker’s specific word choices in these lines evoke a majestic (impressive
beauty) sense of time and place?
