.... He also questions about how the lamb was brought into existence, which mentions another theme of divine intervention and how all creatures were created. The poem is nothing but one wondering question to another (Harmon, p. 361). "The Tiger" by William Blake describes the tiger as being an symbol of evil. This is displayed when Blake says "What an anvil? what dread grasp, Dare its deadly terrors clasp?" By repeating variations of the word "dread" in the poem, he emphasizes the evil of tiger and the evil this tiger possesses. The mighty beast is whole world of experience outside .....

.... evident when he talks of the "wintry bed" (6) and "The winged seeds, where they lie cold and low/ Each like a corpse within its grave, until/ Thine azure sister of the Spring shall blow" (7-9). In the first line, Shelley use the phrase "winged seeds" which presents images of flying and freedom. The only problem is that they lay "cold and low" or unnourished or not elevated. He likens this with a feeling of being trapped. The important word is "seeds" for it shows that even in death, new life will grow out of the "grave." The phrase "winged seeds" also brings images of religions, angel .....

.... path. In an attempt to make a decision, the traveler "looks down one as far as I could". The road that will be chosen leads to the unknown, as does any choice in life. As much he may strain his eyes to see as far the road stretches, eventually it surpasses his vision and he can never see where it is going to lead. It is the way that he chooses here that sets him off on his journey and decides where he is going. "Then took the other, just as fair, and having perhaps the better claim." What made it have the better claim is that "it was grassy and wanted wear." It was something that was .....

.... a Pretty How Town”, “Once like a Spark”, “Up into the Silence the Green” as well as any other of Cummings poems, it necessary to remember that he is best understood when approached on his own terms. In trying to understand meaning in his work it is necessary to avoid simple linguistic interpretation and focus on what the deeper meaning is. In “Once Like a Spark”, he uses the charcters and calls them strangers. While using this name he is in fact stating certain things. Firstly, he is addressing the theme. This theme is corralated in Cummings trancendental view that only thr .....

.... sex with him. All three stanza's in the poem represent a different time frame. The first gives his mistress a feeling of unconditional love. He leads her to believe he would give all he has to her as long as time will permit. During the second stanza, Marvell plays on her fear of getting old. He warns her that her beauty isn't everlasting and that she will end up unhappy alone if she doesn't give in. Marvell's use of optimum time, the best time, show's his emotions. He appears to become aggravated. This seems to be his ace in the hole. In my opinion, he uses what he believe .....

.... by minute they live: The stone’s in the midst of it all (932) Here is an example of events supporting the stone’s cause, in which the overall constancy is maintained. This constant is the underlying strive of the stone to disrupt the stream enough to cause a response that will favor the stone’s well being, that is independence. Indeed the disturbances and splashing caused by the animals represents the actual reality of the revolts in Ireland. First, is the Easter rebellion of 1916 and following World War I there was constant fighting which leads to independence from Bri .....

.... threatening or hostile. Hughs is expressing the frustration he and many other black people had to put up with. He talks about how prices of food are going up, tax increases, and jobs black could never get just because they are colored. In the first and second stanza the tone is one of anger and frustration, but in the last stanza however, it seems to be a threat or a warning to white society. The last several lines state, “ And wonder what we’re gonna do in the face of what we remember. Finally, the poem, in some aspects reflects every day life in Negro America. Not all, but a .....

.... women did in her time. It was mandatory in her society that women respected their husbands, and did what the men ordered. Hester fears neither the leaders of the community nor her husband. She demonstrates her confidence by standing up to a group of the most respected men in town, when she hears they might take her daughter, Pearl, away from her. She even has the courage to demand the minister for his help. "I will not give her up!" She firmly states. "Speak thou for me… Thou knowest what is in my heart, and what are a mother's rights…Look thou to it! I will not lose the child! .....

.... 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 reader that two things will mark the earth forever. First: the awesome power of mother nature is constant, everlasting and subject to .....

.... 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 accurately Prufrock) to an overwhelming question. Prufrock's description of the urban city is quite dreary: " Let us go, through certai .....
