In Sonnet 4, Mother Nature offers a bounteous amount of diverse

gifts: Through the verse, the youth must use their gift shrewdly or he
will perish with his great beauty. Shakespeare uses precise diction
which supports the long and dull tone produced throughout the poem
to sketch a picture of the youth. For example, words like niggard and
deceive add life and titillation, which also reflection the youths
personality. The youth abuses his gift to the world and therefore must
be punished or tombed as Shakespeare says. Shakespeare also uses
cacophonous statements and euphonious words that help to illustrate
the youths gift. For instance, sweet self is eminently a euphonious
phrase that resonates with a serene and rural sound. Throughout the
poem the blossoming youth has the gift of beauty, yet uses it for
himself, instead of offering it to the world through child production.
Due to the fact that the youth resents the idea of passing on his gift he
must die with his endowment to the world. Thy unused beauty must
be tombed with thee this passage emulates this idea. In conclusion,
we as humans are all bestowed with an authentic and extraordinary
gift. With this attribute we must share it to the world and enhance it. In
the sonnet Shakespeare uses beauty as a gift. However, these gifts can
be anything and are bequeath to everybody.
