"the lover despairing to attain unto
his lady's grace relinquisheth the pursuit"
by sir thomas wyatt

whoso list* to hunt? i know where is an hind! **
but as for me, alas! i may no more,
the vain travail hath wearied me so sore;
i am of them that furthest come behind.
yet may i by no means my wearied mind
draw from the deer; but as she fleeth afore
fainting i follow; i leave off therefore,
since in a net i seek to hold the wind.
who list her hunt, i put him out of doubt
as well as i, may spend his time in vain!
and graven with diamonds in letters plain,
there is written her fair neck round about;
'noli me tangere; *** for caesar's i am,
and wild for to hold, though i seem tame.'

On the other hand, it features a couplet, which is a pair of successive rhyming lines:

"Noli... AM (C)

And... TAME (C)

in the thematic approach, an interpreter relies on a central theme (i.e., a major point or message) to guide development of a communication activity or device. in presenting the activity or device, the thematic interpreter develops the theme in such a way that it will be highly relevant to an audience.

explanation:

moon-letters were a method of writing invented by the dwarves. moon-letters were ordinary runes, but written in such a way that they could only be read when the light of the moon shone behind the writing. some moon-letters could be read by any moonlight, but it was possible to make the writing even more secret. more sophisticated moon-letters could only be read by the light of the same shape of moon, or at the same time of year, as when they were written. hope this !
