Rhyme of the ancient mariner
Question :
What effects does Samuel Taylor Coleridge creat using sound devices in the poem?
Answer :
Samuel Taylor Coleridge uses rhyme in the line “And we did speak only to break ” They are two rhyme ,They are speak and break . When it said “down dropt the breeze the sails dropped down ” I think that the boat was was going slower and slower because the wind is stopping.
part the sixth
- The wedding guest is asking the ancient mariner to tell him more about how the boat is still moving and what is the ocean doing to make the boat move.
- The mariner said he is still a slave before his lord the ocean has not blast and his great white eyes most silently in the night.
- If I know witch way to go and she guides me through smooth and grim see how gracious she looks down on me
- But how did the ship move so fast without no waves or wind.
- The air cut away before ,and closed from behind.
Part the fifth
- In the mariners dreams he was thinking that he was drinking and when he wasn’t sleeping he still thought that he was .
- He hadn’t eaten or drank anything for days and he felt light on his feet like he was floating .
- The wind was blowing violently against the sails of the ship.
- The wind started to blow harder and louder and the sails sigh like sedge.
- The wind went then came back again but this time louder and harder
Poetry by heart
And soon I heard a roaring wind It did not come a anear But with its sound it shook the sails that were so things and sere the user air burnt into life and a hundred fire-place sheen to and fro and in out the wan stars danced between.
Part the fourth
•The wedding guest feared the mariners skinny hand snd he said “do not fear my hand.”
•Do not fear me at all my body did not drop down .
•He was alone, alone all alone in the deep blue sea and no saint took pitty on my soul in agony .
•He looked upon the bright blue blue , I looked upon the fotting deck all my men lie dead on the floor.
•He was praying for his neck to be free but then the albatross fell and sank like lead into the sea.
Metaphor :
My heart is dry as dust
