Concealment of the truth and deception are widespread, making people see them as these beautiful beings, however in reality they are not what they purport to be.

2. William Shakespeare wrote the poem Sonnet 127 to describe how different we see something as beautiful now than before, to which he evidently did a good job at.

Literary devices also served as a foundation of the poem what with Shakespeare using it properly, becoming more cohesive. All these made the poem suited as a sonnet.
