Quote-Response (Entry 11)

I choose the quote from the very first pager of the chapter after reading the chapter I thought it fit perfectly to my idea of sound.

"The sound must seem an echo to the sense"(Pope 558)

I connected the statement in several different ways. Sound to be heard must echo out and reach the audience. The sound must portray the sense or feelings of the singer or music. To me when I read this it made me think how a good piece of music will linger on you so the word echo really popped to me, fitting that idea. If a sound is good or bad it echos in your head reminding of you of if even after it is gone. For example, if I see a picture of a hurt or crying child I was reminded of a pitiful whining sound. I think that if a sound "echos" it will be impressionable. If you hear the beat of a song it can instantly amp you up or bring you down before you ever here the words, you can truly feel the sense of a sound.
