Hi class,
I have chosen to write on explication (choice three)for my essay. The poem that I have chosen is "She Walks in Beauty" by Goeroge Gordon, Lord Byron. I have chosen this because the connotation and symbol in any poem requires intensive examination of the text. As a reader we must pay attention to the detail and the irony that is provided in the writing to understand what the poet is trying to say.
