Document Summary
Essay- writing with a poem (cid:498)the world is too much with us; late and soon, Getting and spending, we lay waste our powers; - Little we see in nature that is ours; We have given our hearts away, a sordid boon! This sea that bares her bosom to the moon; The winds that will be howling at all hours, For this, for everything, we are out of tune; So might i, standing on this pleasant lea, Have glimpses that would make me less forlorn; Have sight of proteus rising from the sea; Or hear old triton blow his wreath d horn. Writing a (close reading) paper (the non bolded is for the poem above: developing analysis: nature vs. culture, commentary on consumerism (cid:523)(cid:498)getting and spending(cid:499)(cid:524), disconnection of nature, capitalism, identifying formal features: Line 8 is out of tune and the poem is literally out of tune. Line 9 is a sudden break in the poem.
