i need to compare and contrast the poems The worl is to much with us by William Wordsworth, and The lake Isle of innisfree
I can type out the poems if they are needed plzz reply
The world is too much with us by William Wordsworth
The world is too much with us: late and soon,
Getting and sending, we lay waste our powers:
Little we see Nature that is ours;
We have given our hearts aways, a sordid boon!
This sea that bares her bosom to the moon;
The winds that will be howling at all hours,
And are up-gathered now like sleeping flowers;
For this, for everything, we are out of tune;
It moves us not.-Great God! i'd rather be
A pagen suckled in a creed outworn.
So might I, standing on this pleasent lea,
Have glimpses that would make me forlorn;
Have sight of Proteus rising from the sea;
Or hear Triton blow his wreath'd horn
The Lake Isle of Innisfree by William butler Yeats
I will rise and go now, and go to Innisfree,
And a small cabin build there, of clay and wattles made:
Nine bean-rows will i have there, a hive for the honey-bee,
And live alone in the bee-loud glade.
And I shall have some peace there, for peace come dropping slow,
Dropping from the veils of the morning the where the cricket sings;
There midnight's all a glimmer, and noon a purple glow,
And evening full of the linnet's wings.
I will arise and go now, for always night and day
I hear lake water lapping with low sounds by the shore;
While I stand on the raodwayn or on the pavements gray,
I hear it in the deep heart's core
WAHT THE HELL ARE TALKING ABOUT I TOOK IT RIGHT OUTA OF MY ENGLISH TEXT... WHY CAN'T YOU GUYS JuST HELP A FELLOW OUT AND STOP COMPLANING ABOUT HOWS IT TYPED OUT. IF YOU UNDERSATND WHAT ITS TALKING ABOUT THEN JUST HELP OUT!
Desi said it well. The help on this site is for those who mind their language, in both senses of that expression.
Evan, if you compare your transcriptions with the versions posted on the new thread, you'll find a number of apparently careless differences, which is what I was talking about. However, I don't know what's in your 'English text'. Maybe your teacher has fed you a text with errors in it, in which case it's better to correct them than repeat them.
It is hard to get an error-free text, because the typo gremlin lurks everywhere on the Internet. Even in the re-posted version of the Yeats poem there are a couple of mistakes, but on e-Mule no one minds having typos pointed out for correction, because we prefer to have the right text to discuss.
Anyway, go to the new thread, where Desi has already given you a start.
