妖刀的病房内很安静,妖刀坐在一旁看着英语书,而辛夷则是坐在她身边的书桌答卷,妖刀为了防止自己忍不住去看向辛夷,特意拉上了两张病床间的隔离帘。
辛夷审视着自己面前的这张英文试卷,虽然自己高中时的英语成绩也还说的过去,可是试卷上充斥着大量的《GRE》词汇,这让他有些麻爪,可即便如此,他还是凭着自己出色的答题技巧,去试探着解答这张试卷。
辛夷答到最后,看着最后一道大题,妖刀让辛夷用全英文给她写一首十四行的情诗。十四行诗,又译“商籁体”,为意大利文sonetto,英文Sonnet、法文sonnet的音译。是欧洲一种格律严谨的抒情诗体,最初流行于意大利,彼特拉克的创作使其臻于完美,又称“彼特拉克体”,后传到欧洲各国。
只能说辛夷实在是太闷骚了,对于十四行诗他还真的是有所涉猎,当初莎翁可是十四行情诗中的翘楚。辛夷顿时来了精神,选择了其中的一首,工工整整的在试卷上写道:
Shall I pare thee to a summer's day?
Thou art more lovely and more temperate:
Rough winds do shake the darling buds of May,
And summer's lease hath all too short a date:
Sometime too hot the eye of heaven shines,
And often is his gold plexion dimm'd;
And every fair from fair sometime declines,
By chance or nature's changing course untrimm'd;
But thy eternal summer shall not fade
Nor lose possession of that fair thou owest;
Nor shall Death brag thou wander'st in his shade,
When in eternal lines to time
