The raw power of the language, the startling speed at which it hurls you along and the arresting questions of the poem fill your spirit with wonder at the operation of nature and the awesome mystery of evil.

Mariner to life. That is, the reader is to follow, live, and participate with the idea of the poem.      Coleridge tells of a Mariner on a ship who makes a sin against God and therefore is cursed.

Upon reading and reflecting on the poem “Snake” by D.H. Lawrence, I couldn’t help but feel like the poem hearkens back to Emily Dickinson’s poems “A Narrow Fellow in the Grass” and even “A Bird, Came Down the Walk.” Like Dickinson’s poems there is a recognition of not only the beauty and majesty that is in nature but also the danger that lurks in the unknown.

sleep again for ages. Coleridge’s “The Rime of The Ancient Mariner” has been founded on a dream of his friend Cruickshank, who fancied, he has been a skeleton ship with figures in it. It was Wordsworth, who suggested Coleridge the killing of the Albatross, the revenge of spirits and the stillness of the ship and consequently his sailors dying of thirst.
