    to understand and see the central themes and points that are being focused on. From the assigned readings of Beowulf and after finishing the entire piece I found it stuck with its major theme in which we are given from the prologue of the story. From the start of the story we are able to identify with Scyld Scefing and his role as king and leader.

Many of us‚ feeling weighted down by cares‚ have happened to see someone coping with a

I choose to write about his poem “Love Song” because it really caught my interest and made me really think about what he was trying to tell within the poem. “Love Song” byJ. Alfred Prufrock is about a poet trying to show his love to possibly a close friend that he may have been secretly in love with. My interpretation of the poet’ thoughts
