Each pronoun should agree with its antecedent in

Answers

Answer 1
Answer: Each pronoun should agree with its antecedent in number.
For example: Jane bought the dress she liked. 
She agrees with the antecedent Jane in number, they are both singular.
You wouldn't be able to say:
Jane bought the dress they liked. 
It wouldn't refer to the same antecedent.

“Robin Hood and the Scotchman”Now bold Robin Hood to the north would go,
With valour and mickle might;
With sword by his side, which oft had been try’d,
To fight and recover his right.

The first that he met was a jolly stout Scot,
His servant he said he would be;
No quoth Robin Hood, it cannot be good.
For thou wilt prove false unto me.

Thou hast not been true to sire or cuz:
Nay marry, the Scot he said;
As true as your heart, I never will part,
Good master be not afraid.

But e’er I employ you, said bold Robin hood,
With you I must have a bout;
The Scotchman reply’d, let the battle be try’d,
For I know I will beat you out.

Thus saying, the contest did quickly begin,
Which lasted two hours and more;
The blows Sawney gave bold Robin so brave,
The battle soon made him give o’er.

Have mercy, thou Scotchman, bold Robin Hood cry’d,
Full dearly this boon have I bought;
We will both agree, and my man you shall be,
For a stouter I never have fought.

Then Sawney consented with Robin to go,
To be of his bowmen so gay;
Thus ended the fight, and with mickle delight
To Sherwood they hasted away.

Answers

These sonnets are known as "from the Portuguese", because the author, Elisabeth Barrett Browning, did not want to publish them, fearing they were too intimate, so she said they were not hers, but translated from Portuguese. The language was chosen after her nickname that her husband gave her "my little Portuguese" - because she liked Portuguese poetry (answer 3)
