“water, water, everywhere. ”
This makes the mariner feel unsafe around the scene he is in. The reason the mariner feels irrational is because he is in the middle of the ocean and is not feeling well. He may be sea sick at times. The good thing is that he can go fishing with out the stress of going to give it to someone.
1a) slimy
“Upon the slimy sea.”
1b) bloody
“The bloody sun, at noon.”
Fathom: don’t know.
Twas: it was.
Woe: deep distress.
“The ice was here, the ice was there, the ice was everywhere.”
The repertion is when they say “hERE”, “thERE” and “everywhERE.”
I have choose this line:
“It cracked and growled and roared and howled.”
The reason I choose this line was because it shows the way the ice is separating. It also shows how it sounded in ways animals would sound like. The mariner may feel scared for the fact that he may be the reason the why the ice started cracking.
I believe that the poet used personification for the storm is because it shows how the storm controls other people at times. The other reason why the poet used personification is to show how they move and sound when the waves clash into the boat.
Hello and welcome to your personal online journal.
Edutronic has been created to enhance and enrich your learning at the London Nautical School. Its purpose is to provide you with an audience for your work (or work-in-progress) and you have the choice (by altering the ‘visibility’ of your posts) of whether your work on here is visible to the world, or only to your teacher.
Anything you post here in the public domain represents you and thus it’s important that you take care with that decision, but don’t be afraid to publish your work – as the feedback you may get from people at home, your peers and people from around the internet is only likely to enhance it.
Remember you can always access your class blog and all manner of resources through the Edutronic main website – and by all means check out the sites of your peers to see what they’re getting up to as well.
If you have any questions for your teacher, an excellent way to get an answer is to create a new private post on this journal. Your teachers are am notified of any new posts and will reply swiftly to any queries.
Make the most of, and enjoy this new freedom in your English learning!
