  1. Achievements: Your essay is well organised in paragraphs, you selected four quotes and you tried to mention literary devices.

    Things to improve: Your language is quite difficult to understand, there are some mistakes as regards vocabulary that make your ideas confusing.
    - In the introduction you don´t specify what two ideas of love are prersented.
    - The body is a bit short. Why not analysing the choice of a clod and a pebble as characters? We discussed this in class.
    Are you sure the first quotation you chose is a metaphor? Why?
    I´m glad you mentioned anaphora. Why do you think the author chose to repeat a structure. Include this in your essay.
    Revise the use of the word "complains".
    - Conclusion: since you mention experience as something that defines the character´s idea of love, you should refer to what is said in the poem about the pebble and the clod´s living conditions.
