Comparing A London fete and Composed Upon Westminster Bridge

Comparing A London fete and Composed Upon Westminster Bridge A London fete and composed upon Westminster Bridge. I am going to be comparing two poems in this essay the first poem is London fete which was written by a man called Coventry Patmore this poem is about a hanging that took place and about the effect it had on other people who watched. The second poem is composed upon Westminster bridge by William words worth which is about a man who is standing on a bridge describing the view he sees and how he feels looking at this view. The theme to composed upon Westminster Bridge is firstly about nature and beauty and peace. It describes his view of London to be beautiful and how he feels so calm and relaxed from looking at†¦show more content†¦In know that the setting is in the poem because the poem says â€Å"the beauty of the morning, so silent so bare† and the fact that in the morning the sun is shining and it’s peaceful creates the right atmosphere that the poet wants. In London fete it will be darker as the first line sets the scene. It says â€Å"all nights fell â€Å"which shows it is at night and this sets the scene for the poem. As it is a negative poem if it was a bright colourful day then the negative mood that is created in this poem wouldn’t be created. This shows how having the right type of time of day is important to the poet as it helps them set the mood to there poem. Both these poems are alike because there set in London but that’s when the similarities end. A London fete is a narrative poem, the start of the poem explains how a, man is brought out to be hanged as the poem says â€Å"they brought the man out to be hanged† which starts the story of the poem off, the middle of the poem explains how the audience is waiting with excitement for this man to be hanged, for example the text says â€Å"struggles for betting standings ended† this shows that they are all excited to watch this evil deed to be done. At the end of the poem it finishes the story with how little children who watched this murder were influenced by it and started killing other things as at the end of the poem it says â€Å" two children
