POEMS Flashcards
OZYMANDIAS-
trunkless legs
two vast and trunkless legs of stone
OZYMANDIAS-
command
sneer of cold command
OZYMANDIAS-
bare
boundless and bare
LONDON-
chartered
i wander through each chartered street
LONDON-
marks
marks of weakness marks of woe
LONDON-
tear
newborn infants tear
THE PRELUDE-
huge
huge peak black and huge
THE PRELUDE-
turning around
with trembling oars i turned
THE PRELUDE-
negative quote about nature at the end of poem- contrasts with the first half
no pleasant images of trees
MY LAST DUCHESS-
look at her
whilt you please sit and look at her
MY LAST DUCHESS-
the wife blushing
spot of joy
MY LAST DUCHESS-
commands
i have commands and all smiles stopped together
CHARGE OF THE LIGHT BREGADE-
jaws
the jaws of death
CHARGE OF THE LIGHT BREGADE-
no reason to be there but die
there’s not a reason why
theirs but to do and die
CHARGE OF THE LIGHT BREGADE-
world
all the world wondered
EXPOSURE-
wind
ice east winds that knife us
EXPOSURE-
repetition
but nothing happens
EXPOSURE-
at the end - emotional
slowly our ghosts drag home
