Cutting The Jewish Bride's Hair Analysis
In the “Cutting the Jewish Bride’s Hair”, it seems that women liked to grow out their hair and keep it long and flowing. The groom did not appear to like it and wanted it to be cut off. It is as though, his bride’s long hair interrupted him. He needed to divorce her from what she loved in order to marry her so she would only love him and not her hair. She would then have to learn to cut her hair, in order to please him. To him, having clean, braided hair meant, she would only belong to him. That she would not be able to feel anything for anyone else. He needs to learn that the love she has for her hair will not harm him. If she was to cut her hair though, she will not be the same as she was before. “The Bridal Veil” is about a woman
who might be unsure about getting married. From the poem, it almost sounds like she was forced into marrying this man. Forced for not, she knows that now she needs to love this man ‘till death do them part. She wants him to know she will be there through thick and thin but she is also ready to end things if they are not the way they seem. She is unsure of whether her peace has been broken from being single or if it is a bliss that words cannot describe. In the first poem, the bride’s hair was the big issue that might or might not ruin a relationship. When I compare the first poem with the second one, the hair isn’t the issue. The marriage is. The marriage would last or not depend on how things go between the bride and the groom. The Jewish bride’s hair mattered in the poem, which might also play a role in the second poem. In the second poem, the bride tries to make the most of a marriage that she might not completely believe in. The differences between both poems are not profound. The poem about the Jewish bride’s hair is just that, about her hair. It is about how much she loves her hair and the groom thinks that it is in the way of his love. The second poem is about the vows the bride in veil is speaking about at her own wedding. She promises to love him and hopes that nothing in their marriage goes wrong. Neither of these poems convinces me that true love is present but all the same they are about getting married.
