To Autumn - Task One

TO AUTUMN

Task One


1.






"Rebirth and birth
And it goes round and round
From Zeus' hands to the arms on Thanatos
To the cycle you are bound"













2.




"The colours expand across the grey sky
Alas, the arc upon your sorrowed brow
Is as pulchritudinous

3.




"Shadows reach for me
I walk alone

As so I go on"

- The personification of nature, in our case in "sorrowed brow" compared to how Keats' compares Autumn to a woman.
- The themes of life and death and the cycles in life. Keats' describes natures cycles (Summer, Autumn, etc), as we portrayed on our first picture, and as we expressed on our lines on it. We wrote about how life and death meet and how we are bound to it, as Keats' does in his poem; "Or sinking as the light wind lives or dies".END Task
