After reading this poem by Edgar Allen Poe you will learn about what kind of tone words the author used and the overall effect they have on the mood in the story. Plus, what the feelings they have in the story. In the first sentence when it says “in a kingdom by the sea” it kind of sets the mood by setting it in a happy place by the sea where peace and love can be and are there by the sea. The effect of this is that the maiden and her lover will fall in a deep love and get married one day down along the road. In the second paragraph where it says that “the winged serpents of Heaven Coveted her and me”. It conveys the mood by saying that they were loved by almost everybody they meet.

    ​The narrator of this poem shows a sense of home when he gives his readers a description of his life and previous pre-seafaring days. He leaves his old life for some unspecified reason, telling us that he was "cut off from his kinsmen", and he talks about this with a definite sense of regret and loss. The narrator returns to life at sea, because of the fact that his “heart would begin to beat” again as soon as the waves begin to toss him. This gives an image of death while he was living on land. He feels much safer when he is at sea.

    Alliteration in this poem gives the diction and imagery more power. It sticks with the reader, and allows them to read the poem with more force. Throughout the work, we see repetition of beginning letters in words such as “boundless and bare”, “lone and level sands stretch”, and “sunk a shattered visage lies”. The repetitions of the sounds at the start of these words further emphasize the importance of the diction. The author could have easily said ‘boundless and uncovered’ or ‘boundless and empty’, but he chose to use the words “boundless and bare”.

    One poem that I found particularly interesting in this section of the book is Recovery. In this poem, Thomas and Beulah have been married for a while now and it is becoming obvious they have lost their spark. Beulah is reminiscing on a younger, more romantic Thomas and states, “Years ago, he had promised to take her to Chicago. He was lovely then”. It seems that Thomas has put away his romantic side.

In this line, the light can come and go easily when surrounded by darkness. This represents the faith that comes and goes during colonization and the deficit of the senses. There is no certainty in what can be accomplished during colonization, or how to accomplish it. Travels for colonization was done by boats to travel the sea.

    " These characters are not only mortals but are anonymous in that they have no personal identities, and there is no representation of them as individuals. The lovers seem to decorate the scene much as the "peahens" and the "parrot." Yeats does, however, remind the readers of the characters’ mortality even while he makes them seem timeless. “How when we die our shades will rove” tells clearly that those mortals may be in a dream, but even this dream is destined to end.

  • Emily Dickinson's 'Wild Nights'

    963 Words  | 4 Pages

    In the first stanza, she described her nights with her imagined lover to be “wild nights”, similar to a storm or turbulence connoting their passion together. This contrasted to the word “ luxury” which may be referred to as how there is a barrier between her and ‘thee’ that prevented them from being together, thus why she couldn’t afford the wild nights anymore, or it may also stick to the old reference where luxury meant lust. She then started her second stanza with a negative phrase “ futile - the winds - / to a heart in port “ suggesting that the winds and storms were useless now as as her ‘Heart’ was safe in a ‘port’. The port in this phrase connotes a safe haven where no obstacles can tear the lovers affection, not even

    Analysis of the poem Spellbound by Emily Bronte The speaker in the poem Spellbound by Emily Bronte uses sensory images and figurative language to create a weary feeling among the readers of the situation. The descriptions of the circumstances in the poem indicate a looming storm that has the potential of destruction. Unfortunately, the speaker is in a situation where they cannot leave to a safer place and they are bound by some unexplained forces to the storm. The use of imagery and figurative language assist the readers to critically think about the descriptions and look deeper into the poem and come up with insights that surpass the literal meaning of the words.
