Question: What distinct quality does the speaker attribute to his beloved’s face in this excerpt from William Shakespeare’s Sonnet 93?

...so love's face  

May still seem love to me, though altered new;

Thy looks with me, thy heart in other place:

For there can live no hatred in thine eye,

Therefore in that I cannot know thy change.

In many's looks, the false heart's history

Is writ in moods, and frowns, and wrinkles strange.  

But heaven in thy creation did decree

That in thy face sweet love should ever dwell;

Options:  

  • A) She always looks beautiful.
  • B) She can express her emotions very well.
  • C) She can conceal her love very well.
  • D) She can conceal her moods completely.

Answer: The correct answer is option: D) She can conceal her moods completely.

Explanation: The speaker mentions that his beloved's face will still show that she loves him, even though she doesn't and her looks will stay the same, but her heart will be somewhere else. He expresses that her face could never have a hateful expression. He also mentions that many people express their unfaithfulness in their faces—in moody looks and frowns and strange wrinkles but when heaven created her, it decided that her face would always express sweet love.

The correct option is D.

In the except given above, the speaker in the poem is talking about his beloved's face. He says that his beloved face may still show him that she love him even though she does not. Her looks will reassure him even though her heart is somewhere else. He said he would never be able to tell the difference because his beloved face does not show hatred. Many people feelings can be known by their moods and frowns but not that of his beloved.

These lines shows that the said beloved has the ability to conceal her feeling very well. Whether she loves or hate a person, her face always shows sweetness towards that persons, thus her true feeling can not be known from her looks.
