write a two page essay, use textual citations from the poem. Analyze the following sonnet by Petrarch (your analysis must be based on Petrarch’s poetics) <br/> <br/>here is the poem : <br/>O you who hear within these scattered verses <br/>the sound of sighs with which I fed my heart <br/>in my first errand youthful days when I <br/>in part was not the man I am today; <br/> <br/>for all the ways in which I weep and speak <br/>between vain hopes, between vain suffering, <br/>in anyone who knows love through trials, <br/>in them, may I find pity and forgiveness. <br/> <br/>For now I see, since I’ve become the talk <br/>for long a time of people all around <br/>(it often makes me full of shame), <br/> <br/>that from my vanities comes fruit of shame <br/>and my repentance and the clearest knowledge <br/>that worldly joy is a quick passing dream.
