ESSAY QUESTION TO ANSWER:
Though arguing for dramatically different things, both of the speakerÕÉ≠†Њ†s in Donne’s poems “The Flea” and
“[Death, be not proud]” make arguments with assertive rhetorical developments that are surprising at points. Write
an essay that compares the speakers in each poem, and be sure to address both the rhetorical strategies that
each uses, as well as the tone that each poem assumes.
