Analysis and comments on London, 1802 by William Wordsworth
Comment 2 of 2, added on December 21st, 2005 at 1:53 AM. it is really fascinating! and disgasting as well! Weldo from Ethiopia Comment 1 of 2, added on April 12th, 2005 at 8:25 AM. the begining of the poet is about people and how they change themselves. There is a metaphore in the first stanza its a marshs which given a bad smells which mean that the water in this become marshy. England rife with evil was an area which a placefull of marchy or swamps so this country lost its herited. he wish milton to turn back from his die but milton isnt a solution. He claim that milton is only one who can be able to change. Milton as we know is not the speaker and wordsworth is the speaker and this is the poet voice. the stagnent water dont give a bad smell or unpleasant smell. THE Alter is the place where human marriage is conducted. He use this word for a certain idea (the church is no longer functioning so the people will miss aguided which mean the church doesnt exist). ahmad abu abeeleh from Jordan
