              • Shakespeare’s English
               (technically called Early Modern
          racks 14 and 15  today’s English, specifically
               English) is rather different from
               because it had a special
               conjugation for 2nd person
               informal and a different one for

               person formal is the conjugation
           T   2nd person formal. The 2nd
               that has persisted to the present.
               The 2nd person informal had
               a special set of pronouns: thou
               (for subjects), thee (for direct
               object and after prepositions),
               thy (used before nouns to
               indicate possession) and thine
               (a possessive pronoun, used
               as mine). Also, verbs were
               conjugated differently by adding
               an -est at the end of said verbs
               (for example, thou wanderest,
               thou growest).
              • Encourage your students to use
               the reading time to make mental
               images of themselves reading
               the poems aloud, so they can
               prepare to read the poem they
               choose aloud.
