Window’. The city is described similarly to each other. In ‘Preludes’ the streets in the morning as are described as “sawdust-trampled” (II, line 16) which is reminiscent of the description of the “sawdust restaurants” (line 7) in ‘The Love Song of J. Alfred Prufrock’. The “waves of brown fog” (line 5) in ‘Morning at the Window’ parallels the “yellow fog” (line 15) in ‘Prufrock’. An eerie tone of ‘Morning at the Window’ is created through the repetition of ethereal language throughout the poem. The
brown mice” (line 48) spin around because there are no available foods to fill their hungry stomachs. On the other hand, human beings probably are short of food supplies as well. Fortunately, when the innocent child goes away with the faery, he or she would not face the starvation anymore. The peaceful faery land, therefore, is extremely appealing to the little child and human beings. However, in the noisy secular world, there are the sounds of “the claves on the warm hillside” (line 45), “the kettle
(Browning Line 1) is what this poem is based on. Using literary tools and techniques, Browning unleashes the powerful emotions that hide behind the ink that each word is devotedly written in. The title itself shows the numbers of ways that Browning loves her husband, so many that she must count them. The second line focuses on the reality of her love and the extensions of its outreach. Browning uses anaphora as she repeats the sounds found in “thee” (Browning Line 1) and “the” (Browning Line 1). Her
include the rhythm and the meter of the lines and the stanzas of the poem. Line 1 is an iambic trimeter: The sea/is calm/to-night. The gentle pulsating rhythm of the iamb mirrors the ebb and flow of the sea. The actual words of the first line manifest this idea to picture a calm sea gently lapping at the beach. The second line, an iambic tetramater, also reveals a calm sea. However, line 3 breaks the pattern and forces the reader to break his or her own rhythm. Line 3 includes: Upon/the straits,//on the
at death. According to the speaker, "virtuous men pass mildly away" (line 1) because the virtue in their lives has assured them of glory and reward in the afterlife; hence, they die in peace without fear and emotion. He suggests that the separation of the lovers be like this separation caused by death. In the second stanza the speaker furthers his comparison for a peaceful separation. "So let us melt, and make no noise" (line 5) refers to the melting of gold by a goldsmith or alchemist. When gold
an unimportant element that cannot supply the basic necessity of life: “Pinned down In romantic words, the poet expresses how much she does think of love. She state it clear that she will not trade love for peace in times of anguish. Shift: after line 6 of the poem, there is a shift. In the beginning of the poem, the poet outlines the list of things that love cannot provide for the people who are willing to die it. The narrator outlines the basic necessities like food, shelter, and health. Part
Question (i) 1.0 Introduction: With technology, spoken language has become one of the major interests among linguists. Previously, written discourse was the main concern as it was easy to access any data whereas spoken language needed to go through various levels such as recording and transcribing in order to be able to obtain authentic data. Though it may sound easy, sometimes restrictions such as a low quality voice recorder was used or difficulty in transcribing slang would make it difficult for
love is not love" (lines 1-2). In these lines, the speaker is saying that he will not accept that problems can terminate the relationship between two people who are truly in love. The first line of this sonnet uses alliteration of words me, marriage, and minds; this places emphasis on the emotion in that line. The semicolon in the following line shows that the phrase "[a]dmit impediments" (line 2) refers to the first line. The latter part of the line, "love is not love" (line 2), refers to the
front lines. The image of tiredness and sleep is introduced in the first stanza phrases such as 'Bent-double' (line 1), 'distant rest' (line 4) and 'Men marched asleep' (line 5). The men are so tired they turn their backs on the flares that are sent up to show the bombardiers where to shoot their shells. Another image that Owen uses that appears in the first stanza and is seen through out the poem is how there is a lack of co-ordination and sense. This can be seen by 'Knock-kneed' (line 3),
elaborates on this concept as he states another visual sentence, "He is all pine and I am apple orchard." This line depicts the differences between him and his neighbor. Robert Frost joins all his lines together in this narrative poem while still focusing on different ideas. He uses this style of poetry to develop the theme. Everything flows together yet stands apart line by line. Narratives are pleasingly unrestrained and their strive to tell stories are easeful. In "Mending Wall", Frost
morning. However, when we do recall what we had dreamt, we seem to always be able to describe exactly what happened in great detail. In the poem “You Were You” by Sandra Beasley, the narrator is doing exactly that. As the reader goes through the poem line by line, a more detailed and complete picture of the narrator’s dream is created. We are told that the whole dream is taking place at a bar. This bar is a favorite of an important man in the narrator’s life. The man’s attire is acknowledged in addition
At first glance, it appears to be a feminist piece whose sole purpose is to point out the ways in which a particular woman (Aunt Jennifer) is oppressed. However when a closer look is given, there is much more to this piece. When the poem is read line by line, much more meaning can be gleaned from it. “Aunt Jennifer’s Tigers prance across a screen,” the screen would seem to be a tapestry of some kind on which Aunt Jennifer stitched tigers. “Bright topaz denizens,” the tiger Aunt Jennifer stitched are
her readers and help them understand the feelings that she experiences. Bradstreet sees herself s the “mother” (line 23) of this work, which she calls an “ill-formed offspring” (line 1) and she gives the work many human characteristics to enhance the effect of the conceit. She says that the “child” had been by her side until “snatched from thence by friends, less wise than true” (line 3). Bradstreet’s works would probably never have been published had it not been for her brother-in-law. A person
that the last line of the poem was written in an undefined way with purpose on Frost's side. But each critic poses his own ideas regarding what is the meaning of that line. While Carter examines the whole poem in order to answer this question, Huzzard chose to focus only on the last two lines. The heart of Frost's poem is a picture, which is described in the octave. We are introduced to three creatures the narrator happened to come across: "a dimpled spider, fat and white" (line 1), a white flower

The Line Between Feudalism and Capitalism We consider America to be a capitalist nation, but what exactly makes it capitalist? Webster’s dictionary defines capitalism as an economic system in which investment in and ownership of the means of production, distribution, and exchange of wealth is made and maintained chiefly by private individuals or corporations, especially as contrasted to cooperatively or state owned wealth. Capitalism affects the people in it on a daily basis; it affects the
the poet to create a fourteen line sonnet. At first glance, the poem may seem to be random and senseless, and this interpretation could hold true, for Cage was known especially for his chaotic and seemingly mindless music. One thing to keep in mind is that Cage desired to create meaning through musical methods that most people would believe to be meaningless. Edwin Morgan, the author, is similarly doing this by creating meaning through meaninglessness. Based on a line of 14 words, by simply taking
Hamlet: The Theme of Having A Clear Conscience The most important line in Hamlet is, "The play's the thing, wherein I'll catch the conscience of the king." (II, ii, 617). In the play, the issue of a clear conscience forms a key motif. When the conscience of the characters appears, it does so as a result of some action; as in the case of the aforementioned line, which follows Hamlet's conversation with the player. This line is of particular significance because it ties action and its effect
The Road Not Taken In line one, Frost introduces the elements of his primary metaphor, the diverging roads. Lines two to three expresses the speaker's disappointment with his human limitations; he must make a choice. The choice is not easy, since "long I stood" before coming to a decision. Lines four and five examine the path as best the narrator can. However his vision is limited because the path bends and is covered over. These lines indicate that although the speaker would like to acquire more
flight was delayed by three hours, thus destroying my great mood. As I make my way through security I watch everyone take their belongings off and place them into a rectangular plastic bin, which goes through a scanner. As I am near the front of the line the OCD side of me is freaking; everyone has to take off their shoes, and I have to walk on that floor afterwards. Then, I reevaluate and tell myself that it is only my feet. Finally, I couldn’t help but notice some people getting full body pat downs
