To Autumn
John Keats
圆明园大宫门To Autumn is an immortal poem. I will try to write some of my feelings after reading 维u颠茄铝胶囊To Autumn千代田之松 and analyze it. I believe this will not be an easy work.
To Autumn deals with the prence of nature and how autumn itlf is more significant than any of the other asons. What most called my attention was the infinite number of images you can imagine by reading it. It ems that john Keats describes what he imagine and while reading it, I can create the picture in my mind, of what he is eing.
阿基拉和拼字比赛>德牧多少钱To Autumn has three stanzas. Each of three stanzas shows us different time of a day and different time of autumn. I thought this poem exhibited two kinds of progression of time. Fi
rst is the time of day. The first stanza is the morning with the "mists". The cond is late afternoon, when the hot sun is beating down and makes everyone drowsy. The third is at sunt with the "barred clouds" piercing the sky with its "rosy hue". This poem also shows a progression in the ason of autumn itlf. The first stanza is early autumn becau "summer has o'er brimmed. It shows the maturing of summer’s bounty. The cond is mid-autumn, becau it's time for harvest. The third is late autumn becau the birds are headed south for winter.
In stanza 1, Keats describes autumn with a ries of specific, concrete, and vivid images. The stanza begins with autumn at the peak of fulfillment and continues with an Initially autumn and the sun "load and bless" by ripening the fruit. But the apples become so numerous that their weight bends the trees; the gourds "swell," and the hazel nuts "plump." Personification in this stanza is not very clear.
In stanza 2, autumn personified as a harvester, cross a brook and watches a cider press. Otherwi autumn is listless and even falls asleep. The furrow is "half-reap'd," the

Find other words that indicate slowing down. Notice that Keats describes a reaper who is not harvesting and who is not turning the press. Personification here is very successful. It gives autumn a personality and the autumn is no longer abstract.
In stanza 3, spring in line one has same function as summer in stanza 1. They reprent process, and the change of time. Spring is a time of a rebirth of life. Autumn means death for the now "full-grown" lambs which were born in spring; they are ravaged in autumn. And the answer to the question of line 1, where are Spring's songs, is that they are past or dead. The auditory details that follow are autumn's songs. I know that Keats wrote ‘To Autumn’ shortly before his death, but 报纸的英语to me this poem is more about the approaching death of Keats and the autumn prior to the ravages and harshness of winter. It is a romantic poem, of opportunities misd and pleasant gains. It contrasts with the miry of day to day life, with a progressive illness in the early 19th century, which only opium can offer some respite. Keats was clearly in a bad way, although facing his death, and the
very intensity, passion and clarity of the poem reflects this.
