Writing texts differs from the techniques or style used by the writers. As I read the text, I’ve observed that various punctuations were used in the text such periods to indicate that the sentence ends there. Commas were used also to indicate that there’s a pause between parts of the sentence, and question marks to indicate questions. Every line also starts with the capitalization of letters. The author also used correct spelling of words. Aside from that, he/she used variety of language wherein a British word was used in a sentence like the word “honour” instead of using an American English “honor”. Rhyming of words at the end of the sentence is also noticeable for example, “Richly, richly, robe him richly” and “The cloth of honour is alari”. The used of intonation in the text are also observable wherein, in the line three, “A man of honour should be seen?” is a rising intonation indicates that the author tried to question someone. While falling intonation was seen and indicates a statement such as in the line eight, “Sanyan is the band of friendship”. Stress is also apparent in the text that helps to give emphasis and importance of each syllables. Overall, the choices of words found in the texts were easy to comprehend.
