The Chambered Nautilus Literary Devices

The two poems that I picked were about a blacksmith and about the sea and a Greek god. The author of the Chambered Nautilus is Oliver Wendell Holmes, and the author of the Village Blacksmith is Henry Wadsworth Longfellow. My first poem is about this siren-a female and partly human creature in Greek Mythology that lured mariners to destruction by her singing. My seconded poem is about a blacksmith and how you can hear him in his shop. I'll talk about how they will relate to each other and how they differ from each other. Through their use of rhyme, themes, and point of view.
The first book that I’m going to talk about is the Chambered Nautilus. In this poem I found rhyme, theme, point of view, and stanza. The theme in this poem is beauty, death, and nature. An example from this poem is “Wrecked is the ship of pearl!/And every chambered cell,”(lines 9-10). The next one is Rhyme, “From thy dead lops a clearer note is born/Than ever Triton blew from wreathed horn!/ While on mine ear it rings,/Through the deep caves of thought I hear a voice that sings.”(lines 25-28). The point of view is in third person, and example “He left the past year’s dwelling for the new,” (line 18). That is about all we found in our first poem.

The theme of this poem is death, family, and work. This is an example of death,”He needs mist thini if her once more,/How in the grave she lies;/And with his hard, rough hand he wipes/A tear out of his eyes.”(lines 33-36). Our next one is rhythm and an example is, “your can hear him swing his heavy sledge,/With measured beat and slow,/Like a sexton ringing the village bell,/When the evening sun is low.”(lines 15-18). My last one is point of view and it is in third person. An example is “His hair is crisp, and black, and long,/His face is like th tan;(lines 7-8). This is all I got for these
