The poem progresses from mourning of the deceased to praising of his achievements and fate to die before his glory withered. Therefore, the tone shifts from somber and quiet to upbeat and positive. Such shift of tone is achieved by Housman’s use of sounds. In first two stanzas, Housman describes the funeral procession as he remembers the time when the young athlete was proudly brought home after he won a race. Then, he solaces the mourners by reminding them it is better that the athlete “slip betimes away from fields where glory does not stay” (lines 9 and 10) because the laurel “withers quicker than the rose” (line 12). The soft “s” sound stands out especially in second and third stanza and it creates a sense of calm and quiet tone and evokes an image of townspeople mourning the death of their “hero”; Consonance of “s” sounds is present in words “shoulder, set, threshold, townsman, stiller, smart, slip, betimes, fields, does, stay, grows, withers, and rose.” In addition to consonance, soft sound alliteration in “road all runners” (line 5) helps to create a quiet tone.

Along with this, a vast majority of the rhymed words are negative. He uses negative words to show his slight anger to society because he feels that the rest of the world has to know what they are doing. This ties into “pain” words. Words such as “vile, lies, tortured” are used throughout this piece, and it shows that there is also a sadness in Dunbar’s tone.

During our descent to Booze the scenery of Calver Hill, Fremington Edge and lower Arkengarthdale rouses the senses. Booze is a small hamlet, consisting of just a few farms and cottages, but unfortunately it does not have any licenced premises as its name implies. As a matter of fact, most of its early residents were Methodists and so they abstained from the demon drink. In 1473 the hamlet was known as Bowehouse, changing through the years to Booze. The original name means ‘The house by the curve’, the curve possibly referring to the curving hillside or perhaps to one of the nearby
