.... realms I owned." Since she could not own, much less lose a realm, the speaker seems to be comparing the realm to a large loss in her life. Finally, the statement in the final quatrain "Even losing you" begins the irony in that stanza. The speaker remarks that losing this person is not "too hard" to master. The shift in attitude by adding the word "too" shows that the speaker has an ironic tone for herself in her loss or perhaps her husband or someone else close to her. Language and verse form show in "One Art" how the losses increase in importance as the poem progresses, with .....

.... nothing. The same an elderly man would do because his options are limited do to age. It is truly felt while reading his work, Robison does not venture far from the pointat hand. While reading this great poem, you can clearly see that being old and alone will not stop Mr. Flood from living life to the fullest. In lines 9-13 of Robinson's masterpiece, Eben is having a ball at his party, no matter if he is the only one in attendance. “Well, Mr. Flood, we have the harvest moon Again, and we may not have many more: The bird is o .....

.... of the project. After the war, Edith Sitwell had begun to prepare the poems for publication; she had even published seven of the poems in Wheels, the magazine she edited, and was preparing to publish more. It was then that Sassoon became involved. Sitwell, in a letter dated 3 October 1919, wrote to Susan Owen (Wilfred's mother) and told her, I wrote to Captain Sassoon, to ask him if he could help me about them. He came to see me; and told me it would have been your son's wish that (Sassoon) should see to the publication of the poems, becaus .....

.... in which there is no proof and which many also believe. The two are very separated in their ideals because they both have a completely different set of beliefs. They are both very mysterious things that lack conclusive proof. Updike’s experience at the end is somewhat religious because he is completely awed by something so mysterious (the birds). Next the author’s organization of the poem also contributes to the climactic ending. In each stanza the author describes one specific part of his experience. In the first stanza the author depicts the setting, the second stanza .....

.... of passages strongly resonate with Whitman's sexuality in their strongly pleasurable sensualities. The thoroughly intimate encounter with another individual in section five particularly expresses Whitman as a being of desire and libido. Whitman begins his synthesis of the soul and body through sexuality by establishing a relative equality between the two. He pronounces in previous stanzas, "You shall listen to all sides and filter them from yourself," and, "Not an inch nor a particle of an inch is vile, and none shall be less familiar than the rest." Here, he lays foundation f .....

.... the waves of feeling which numb the mind. In the third stanza, the poet states that she hears the mourners lift the coffin. Again, they move slowly across her soul with feet which seem encased in lead. Am intensification of attack on the mind by bringing together images of sound and weight is suggested. She hears the mourners as they lift the coffin and begin to move, and she feels their feet which seem to be encased in lead. In stanza four, the figure is continued in the sound of a tolling bell. The heaven seems to have become a great bell which is ringin, and a .....

.... death.Even though Beowolf didn't do this heroic and noble act for the reward ing Hrothgar gave him a sword and eight horses with golden cheek plates. The second act of Beowolf's conflict with grendel showing his nobility is not with Gredel himself but with Grendels mother. After Grendel was killed his mother was very angry and killed a knight in king Hrothgar's court the same way her son had. King Hrothgar was very disturbed by this and didn't know what to do. He called for Beowolf and told him of a dangerous swamp where Grendel and his mother lived. The king also said that .....

.... the do not have their own country. He then tells how no outcome of the war would do any harm to Britain, The Irish were the only ones with something to lose. And, that nothing would make the Irish forget the war. They would never be as happy as they were before they fought. Yeats’ then writes “Nor law, nor duty bade me fight, Nor public men, nor cheering crowds,” which was portraying that the Irish were not forced to fight, but it was a custom for a country to fight for there motherland. The pilot then recognizes that the war was just chaos in the sky, and begins to .....
