Immediately in the first line, Lazarus uses personification by giving the year two faces in order to show that the year 1492 was a contradictory year. As Americans, we think of 1492 as the year Christopher Columbus discovered the Americas. This marks the beginning of the land of freedom and opportunity. However, for a Jew, 1492 was the year King Ferdinand and Queen Isabella “cast forth with a flaming sword” and demanded all Jews leave the country of Spain. Lazarus’s ancestors had been affected by this movement, therefore forcing them to move elsewhere.
In Strindberg’s Miss Julia and Mamet’s Oleanna, readers are able to conclude that the battle between John and Miss Julia and John and Carol are similar. In Miss Julia, Julia is portrayed as a fragile woman who allow Jean, a heartless man leads her into her downfall—her death. On the other hand, in Oleanna, John, the professor is forced to live nightmare because of Carol, his student. This similarity allows the readers to realize that in life, history repeats itself; this includes personal and professional conflicts that human beings are forced to face throughout their life journey here on earth. After reading Oleanna, I am able to conclude that John is right; therefore, I have sympathy for him.
Interestingly, the beginning bars of this piece sound similar to the beginning of Abide With Me, written by Henry Francis Lyte, and composed by William Henry Monk.

The third recording of “Come All Ye Songsters of the Sky”, performed by Accademia Bizantina takes style choices used by the London Classical Players even further, performing at an extremely slow tempo. This piece in particular, in fact, is the slowest tempo out of all of the recordings. The singer, a tenor named Andrew Carwood, sings through his notes with a very legato style, unlike what is notated in the original score. He also chooses to add very little ornamentation of his own; if any, he chooses to add a suspension or anticipation at cadence points and ends of phrases. Besides that little bit of ornamentation, he is basically singing the melody that is written in the original score.

It is as if one voice is staying motionless, watching the other voice depart, before leaving in the opposite direction while looking back frequently at the other longingly . The alto then joins the quinto and canto at measure seven, and rapidly mimics the descending stepwise line of the canto at the lyrics “ah, end of my life.” This is an essential text painting as a descending line is suggestive of a lament, and the lyrics in this fragment, full of despair and grief, are somewhat clearly lamentable. The two voices, quinto and canto repeat the descending line together in
Guillaume Machaut’s Notre Dame Mass is important to music history because it is the first known setting of an entire mass to polyphony music. In “Agnus Dei,” the two lower voices sing a theme based upon a rhythmically altered Gregorian chant, known as cantus firmus. Its ternary form and polyphonic texture is common in sacred music and is also seen in the “Kyrie” in Palestrina’s Pope Marcellus Mass. The harmonies of the “Agnus Dei” include stark dissonances, hollow-sounding chords, and full triads.

This song spans five and a half minutes and acts as the album's opus, even covering various themes from other songs in the album. It also changes in style multiple times in a smooth fashion over the entirety of the track: "Hand of God" starts slow and nostalgic, then slowly picks up speed. Bellion starts in the beginning describing how his life has changed and how he feels like he might suddenly break. In a magnificent transition, the track morphs into a gospel choir proclaiming "nothing has changed, he is the same. Your whole life's in the hand of God".
This paragraph is a prayer of Io, the mortal lover of Zeus. She talks to enchained Prometheus and laments about her sorrow which was caused by love. The first thing that we mention is that this orison is a monologue to Prometheus, however, she is in hope that Zeus would be listening to her as well. The second fact about this piece is that the name of Zeus is never mentioned; she uses epithets like “Son of Cronos” and “Lord God” to refer to him. Two points mentioned compliment each other as they portray the Io’s personality, shaped by the struggle she is experiencing.
The first line begins, “Then give me welcome,” which invokes pity from the speaker’s lover to accept his confession and forgive him of his wrongdoing. (110.14) The use of “Next my heaven the best” reflects the speaker stating to his true love for her is equivalent to his own “heaven”. (110.14) That his true love is the closest thing to the divine.
