Encounters with Creatures In the poems “An Advancement of Learning” and “An August Midnight” the connection between both poems is their focuses on their encounters with creatures‚ Heaney’s with a rat on a river embankment and Hardy’s with several nocturnal insects that fly through his window. Both draw on the idea of their personal encounters with creatures to portray these ideas. In contrast they are composed of different structures. In “An Advancement of Learning” it is composed of nine stanzas

The night was cold‚ a thick fog hung outside‚ which I could see from my window. In the moonlight‚ the fog appeared like clouds descending on the earth. How I wished I could go out and be amongst the clouds‚ but here I was trying to catch some sleep‚ which was eluding me .My mother had just put me to bed wishing me sweet dreams‚ but sleep was miles away from me. I paced the floor up and down‚ clutching the shawl to myself and switched on the Television to see if there was any interesting programme
