The poem below describes an artist who idealizes his subjects - meaning he paints them as he would like to remember them, not as how they are in real life. The poem is a Petrarchan sonnet, which would normally follow the rhyme scheme noted at the left. How does the poem's break in this rhyme scheme in its final line help provide greater meaning in the poem?

a One face looks out from all his canvases,
b One selfsame figure sits or walks or leans:
b We found her hidden just behind those screens,
a That mirror gave back all her loveliness.
a A queen in opal or in ruby dress,
b nameless girl in freshest summer-greens,
b saint, an angel; -every canvass means

a The same one meaning, neither more nor less.
c He feeds upon her face by day and night,
d And she with true kind eyes looks back on him,
c Fair as the moon and joyful as the light: d Not wan with waiting, not with sorrow dim;
c Not as she is, but was when hope shone bright
d Not as she is, but as she fills his dream.

Ted is analyzing the sonnet “Composed upon Westminster Bridge, September 3, 1802.” As you read the sonnet, notice what the author says about urban and rural settings.

Earth has not anything to show more fair:

Dull would he be of soul who could pass by

A sight so touching in its majesty:

This City now doth, like a garment, wear

The beauty of the morning; silent, bare,

Ships, towers, domes, theatres, and temples lie

Open unto the fields, and to the sky;

All bright and glittering in the smokeless air.


Never did sun more beautifully steep

In his first splendour, valley, rock, or hill;

Ne'er saw I, never felt, a calm so deep!

The river glideth at his own sweet will:

Dear God! the very houses seem asleep;

And all that mighty heart is lying still!


How does the poem’s form contribute to its meaning?


A. The rhyme scheme emphasizes the beauty and natural elements of the city.

B. The octave creates an image of the city, while the sestet gives the speaker’s awed reaction.

C. The octave introduces the speaker’s opinions about cities, while the sestet contradicts those opinions.

D. The meter, iambic pentameter, mimics the sounds of natural elements while the lines describe an urban scene.
