Sonnet 138
Words: 1551 - Pages: 6.... In this essay I will investigate the tools with which Shakespeare constructs this unconventional love poem.

geniuses at USAMRIID found out that it wasn't Zaire, but a new strain
of Ebola, which they named Ebola Reston. This was added to the list of
strains: Ebola Zaire, Ebola Sudan, and now, Reston. These are all
level-four hot viruses. That means there are no vaccines and there

In opening up, the loneliness as faded and it has been replaced by happiness.
