    Throughout recorded history, humans have accredited the happenings of nature to a higher power; shown through religious beliefs past and present.

    There is no doubt many metaphorical meanings that critics can take from the “The Windhover” by Gerard Manley Hopkins.

    Patience Precipitates Peace The trials and tribulations the world brings can bring individuals into a state of disarray. The oft asked question is simply, “Why?”. Why must these tragedies happen and why must society have to suffer. No one is immune from this question. Even David wrote in the 13th chapter of Psalms, How long, O Lord? Will You forget me forever?

    Compare the techniques that the poets you studied this year use to explore the idea that truly significant battles are fought within oneself. Differences in people’s opinions can cause major conflicts, however fighting against one’s own opposing beliefs can be tougher to resolve. Poets William Blake, G.M. Hopkins and Gwen Harwood have produced various poems epitomising how these internal struggles can become quite detrimental.
