For Wed. Jan. 25, read or reread Shakespeare's "Sonnet 116" and consult The Little Penguin Handbook regarding incorrect sentence structures

I've decided to replace the three poems listed on the syllabus for Wed. Jan. 25, with Shakespeare's "Sonnet 116". Many of you have read this sonnet few weeks ago, at it was originally scheduled on the syllabus along with Marvell and Donne. 
If you click on the Course Documents, you'll see the following change has been made.

Wednesday, January 25, 2010 Before Class: Post a question or respond to a question about the sonnet posted by a classmate
 Discussion: “Sonnet 116” or “Let me not to the marriage of true minds” byWilliam Shakespeare
**In The Little Penguin Handbook, look up fragment, comma splice, and run-on (Faigley 178-184).
                 And, of course, bring The Little Penguin Handbook to class.

The reading is available via link under Course Readings. Make sure you come prepared to class to discuss the sonnet as well as having had consulted The Little Penguin Handbook regarding the three problematic sentence structures listed above.
