easier to explain than a rock slide caused by
random geologic events. Another event which could
be explained to a lesser extent by the theory of a
nature myth, is when Apollo appears as a Dolphin
in the boat of Minoan sailors. Although not a

Sir Lancelot Descriptive Language
1,352 words
In any piece of lyrical poetry, authors must
masterfully use the language of the poem to covey
the intended meaning. In order to ensure the
meaning is not lost, it is imperative that the
author incorporates various aspects of the
narrative to escalate the poem past its face
value. Alfred Tennyson's poem The Lady of Shallot
is no exception to the rule. From lines like blue
unclouded weather and the gemmy bridle glitter
free, one can draw that descriptive language is
Tennyson's tool to revealing t...

England were the Townshend acts, the formation of
