"A Valentine"
by Edgar Allan Poe

1.For her this rhyme is penned whose luminous eyes,
2.Brightly expressive as the twins of Leda,
3.Shall find her own sweet name, that nestling lies
4.Upon the page, enwrapped from every reader.
5.Search narrowly the lines!-they hold a treasure
6.Divine-a talisman-an amulet
7.That must be worn at heart. Search well the measure-
8.The words-the syllables! Do not forget
9.The trivialest point, or you may lose your labor
10.And yet there is in this no Gordian knot
11.Which one might not undo without a sabre,
12.If one could merely comprehend the plot.
13.Enwritten upon the leaf where now are peering
14.Eyes scintillating soul, there lie perdus
15.Three eloquent words oft uttered in the hearing
16.Of poets, by poets-as the name is a poet's, too,
17.Its letters, although naturally lying
18.Like the knight Pinto-Mendez Ferdinando-
19.Still form a synonym for Truth-Cease trying!
20.You will not read the riddle, though you do the best you can do.

Read the following excerpt from "harrison bergeron" by kurt vonnegut: he tried to think a little about the ballerinas. they weren't really very good-no better than anybody else would have been, anyway. they were burdened with sashweights and bags of birdshot, and their faces were masked, so that no one, seeing a free and graceful gesture or a pretty face, would feel like something the cat drug in. george was toying with the vague notion that maybe dancers shouldn't be handicapped. but he didn't get very far with it before another noise in his ear radio scattered his thoughts. what message about the role of media is best supported in this excerpt? a. media are the reason george is able to watch ballet. b. media change people's values, making them more selfish. c. media tend to make audiences' worldviews the same. d. media can be used to distract audiences from the truth.
