John Keats’ To Autumn and Percy Bysshe Shelley’s Ode to the West Wind E

fast one Keats To Autumn and Percy Bysshe Shelleys Ode to the West intertwineEven though both John Keatss To Autumn and Percy Bysshe Shelleys Ode to the West tip are about the same season, they are rattling dissimilar. Keatss poem concentrates on the creating power of free fall, and makes it seem a loving season, while in Shelleys poem death is a retell image, and shows surrenders destroying power. In To Autumn, Keats uses three stanzas of eleven lines each. The original seven lines of each stanza go on an ABABCDE rhyme-scheme. The remaining four lines of the first stanza follow a rhyme-scheme that is several(predicate) from the other ii stanzas. The first stanza has DCCE and the other two have CDDE. Some lines in the poem are indented, whereas others are not. add up the not indented lines 1, the lines with iodin extra spacing 2, and the lines with two extra spaces 3, the indenting of the lines follows on the nose the same pattern as the rhyme-scheme, namely 1212-1 23-2113 for the first stanza, and 1212-123-1223 for the other stanzas.Shelleys stanzas are composed of four interlinking triplets, following the principle of terza rima, and one couplet. The stanzas have ABA BCB CDC DED EE rhyme-scheme. Both poems have alliteration to emphasize the prime(a) of the season Season of mists and mellow fruitfulness shows the kind nature of Keatss autumn, while O wild West Wind, thou breath of Autumns be shows the powerful character of Shelleys autumn. The first stanza of To Autumn describes the way in which autumn is able to support life. On the one hand, its about ripeness as things grow older as the year is approaches its end, and helped by the maturing sun (l. 2), autumn has to fill all fruits with ripeness to t... ...ally a form of hibernation. In Ode to the West Wind, death is a recurrent theme, but death is also mentioned in To Autumn. In Keatss poem, however, it is clear that the creative power of autumn dominates the references to death. In Ode to the West Wind, the autumn is not only the uncouth power it seemed to be at first according to Shelley, autumn also has the ability to preserve life, by letting it die symbolically first. on the whole in all, both poems show that autumn has a number of different facets, and it cannot be described by one or the other, but all. whole shebang CitedKeats, John.
