Great introduction. But I would rephrase your opening statement so it’s less wordy. But in the rest of your paragraph, there is great flow. You brought in a lot of relevant and important background information.

The Rape of the Lock, because it’s a mock epic, should be italicized and not placed in quotation marks. 

When you’re paraphrasing, you still need to cite in this case, the canto number and line numbers. Also rotate between paraphrasing and citing direct quotations. 

You make some great points and bring in clear and supportive textual evidence, but we need canto numbers and line numbers!!! Also, change up between paraphrasing and citing direct quotations. 

I will increase your grade if you will cite properly!!! Upon making corrections, please feel free to resubmit
