Exercise 1.
1. What is the irony in the poem “Sea Lullaby” by Elinor Wylie?
The irony is in the concept of the poem that from the moment
one reads the subject, we think that it will be something sweet
and peaceful because it also talks about the sea, but as we read
the poem we realize that it is something totally different, it
speaks about a tragedy.
2. What is the mood in this poem?
Melancholic and sad.
3. Find imagery by highlighting the words and phrases and by
writing the words of the sense it appeals, close to the line
where it appears. (The first one is done).
Sea Lullaby

A Poison Tree
William Blake
I was angry with my friend:
I told my wrath, my wrath did end.
I was angry with my foe:
I told it not, my wrath did grow.
