Show transcript
The regularity of the rhyme may link to ideas of contentment in nature. Alternatively, the irregularity in the rhythm may suggest a sense of being overwhelmed by nature. The personification may create a sense of emotional connection between humanity and nature. Alternatively, the personification may link to the Romantic sublime through the sentience of nature. Using a simile to describe nature may create the impression of nature as unfamiliar and incomprehensible.
