Comment on the Narrative Methods used in Part 1 of The Rime of the Ancient Mariner. Part one of The Rime of the Ancient Mariner opens with a third person omniscient narrator: ‘It is an ancient Marinere‚ And he stoppeth one of three.’ This person represents Coleridge as he knows everything that is happening in the poem‚ and he is setting the scene for the rest of the lyrical ballad. Other people may take the view that the omniscient narrator represents God‚ as he is seen by religious people as the

to commit those evil acts despite their morality. In the epic poem “The Rime of the Ancient Mariner‚” the mariner kills the albatross for no apparent reason. The author never stated why the mariner shot the bird with his crossbow. The killing of the bird at a time when the bird seemed to act as a “good luck charm” remains pointless.
