.... a suspended moment of realization of one man's life, "spread out against the sky". The imagery of the patient represents Prufrock's self-examination. Furthermore, the imagery of the "etherised patient" denotes a person waiting for treatment. It seems this treatment will be Prufrock's examination of himself and his life. Prufrock repeats his invitation and asks the reader to follow him through a cold and lonely setting that seems to be the Prufrock's domain. The imagery of the journey through the city is described as pointed to lead the reader (and more accur .....

.... it, paste it together in a different collage...”. In this poem, Maxine Kumin, uses plants to describe her feelings, as in; “scatter like milkweed” and “pods of the soul”. These similes show what she sees and feels. “The Longing to be Saved”, is a dream, where her barn catches fire. “In and out of dreams as thin as acetate.” She visualizes herself getting the horses out, but they “wrench free, wheel, dash back”. In, “Family Reunion”, she writes that “nothing is cost efficient here”. Vegetables are grown on the farm, and animals are raised to be killed. “The ele .....

.... Spanish I'm lost, and with help from my pal, All I haved learned in that class is Qué tal?; I head for my desk just to wait for the bell, Then it's off again, get me out of this hell; In Biology we're learning what makes you cough; In History It's notes 'till my arm falls off; English however Is alot of fun; Then IT's P.E....do I have to run? When you see me jumping and shouting horray, You will know I'm in the last class of the day; Math has just started and I've had enough; Am I ever gonna really use this weird stuf .....

.... the race We chaired you through the market place; Man and boy stood cheering by, And home we brought you shoulder-high. (Housman 967). Stanza two describes a much more somber procession. The athlete is being carried to his grave. In Leggett's opinion, "The parallels between this procession and the former triumph are carefully drawn" (54). The reader should see that Housman makes another reference to "shoulders" as an allusion to connect the first two stanzas: Today, the road all runners come, Shoulder high w .....

.... the Ground- The Roof was scarcely visible- The Cornice in the Ground-" (913). Although the poem does not directly say it, it is highly probable that this grave is the woman's own. It is also possible the woman's body already rests beneath the soil in a casket. If this is at all accurate, then her spirit or soul may be the one who is looking at the "house." Spirits and souls usually mean there is an afterlife involved. It isn't until the sixth and final stanza where the audience obtains conclusive evidence that "Because I Could Not Stop For Death" believes in a .....

.... The princess is directly contrasted by the characters of the maid and the knight. Where the princess follows her code of noble action and is punished, the knight and maid undertake unchivalrous actions and are rewarded. Both the maid and knight follow the natural instinct that is ignored by Miranda. Faced with the same threat the maid and the knight both react in a logical manner. They see that there is little chance of being in any way triumphant over Faggon, and violate the code of nobility for something that is more important to them, their lives. .....

.... It is ironic that the words inscribed on the pedestal "Look on my works. . . and despair!" reflect the evidence of the next line, "Nothing beside remains," that is, there is nothing left of the reign of the greatest king on earth.One immediate image is found in the second line, "trunkless legs.". One good comparison may be when the author equates the passions of the statue's frown, sneer, and wrinkled lip to the "lifeless things" remaining in the "desart." Another is when Shelley compares the "Works" of with "Nothing beside remains." shows the read .....

.... her engagement to Lord Petre. Most of Pope's efforts here were written with time. Now, Keats has romantically serenaded his reader with descriptive lust and desire, which can be compared with popes' efforts by the difference in eighteenth century literature and romantic poems, their descriptive natures and ideas they portray to the reader through their writing. Pope has written an eighteenth-century poem which he calls, "An Hero- Comical Poem." This poem has exalted an over all sense of worthlessness for common rules. The mentioning of Achilles and the e .....
