CRITICAL ANALYSIS OF LOUIS MACNEICE’S "THE SUNLIGHT ON THE GARDEN" The sunlight on the garden Hardens and grows cold‚ We cannot cage the minute Within its nets of gold; When all is told We cannot beg for pardon. Our freedom as free lances Advances towards its end; The earth compels‚ upon it Sonnets and birds descend; And soon‚ my friend‚ We shall have no time for dances. The sky was good for flying Defying the church bells And every evil iron Siren and what it tells: The earth compels‚ We are dying

Fighting for the home country‚ the actions on the battlefields and the confrontation with pain and death inspired many talented writers and poets at war to turn their experiences and thoughts into verse lines. However‚ the poets did not only depict the

Pied Beauty Glory be to God for dappled things - For skies of couple-colour as a brinded cow; For rose-moles all in stipple upon trout that swim; Fresh-firecoal chestnut-falls; finches’ wings; Landscape plotted and pieced—fold‚ fallow‚ and plough; And áll trades‚ their gear and tackle and trim. All things counter‚ original‚ spáre‚ strange; Whatever is fickle‚ frecklèd (who knows how?) With swíft‚ slów; sweet‚ sóur; adázzle‚ dím; He fathers-forth whose beauty is pást change: Práise
