1. I would describe the tone established in line 1 as hopeful and excited. The words that contribute to that are “Let us go then” because it implies that there is going to be an adventure. 2. Eliot shifts the tone at line 3 by using the words “patient etherised upon a table” because it implies that he isn’t actually going to do anything, but lay there. 3. The lengthy description of the yellow smog gives an effect of ugliness, a feeling that you don’t want to be there. 4. I think that the poet repeated that line twice to that it would be clear that the women were talking of interesting matters, and that he was not included. 5. The speaker travels to most likely a coffee shop. The movements are suggested because he only sits there, he does not get up to talk to the women. I know that he is not at home because the women are talking and he is not included, if it was his room he would be included. 6. My favorite line from the poem is “I shall wear the bottoms of my trousers rolled” because it provides imagery of an old man rolling up his pant legs. It communicates that when you get old, you become shorter. 7. The speaker is concerned that the ladies will not find him attractive, and that they may make fun of him for his imperfections. 8. The speaker says that there will be time to go and talk to the women, and that he doesn’t have to do it right now. I do not find this to be optimistic because he is putting off something that he really wants to do. 9. The activities that the speaker finds to be daring is getting up and talking to the girls. This activity is not what I would consider daring, nor do I think that it would disturb the universe. 10. The braceleted arms and perfume affect the speaker by making him feel overwhelmed and charmed by the ladies. 11. The remark “the Footman has snickered” implies that his life is so pathetic that even death itself will laugh at him. 12. The speaker would have rolled the universe into a ball if he spoke to the ladies; he thinks that this action would alter the universe. It alludes to him speaking to the girls, and it is ironic because he does not have the guts to go talk to them. 13. The repetition of the phrase “that is not it at all” is significant because it shows that he does not think that the ladies will understand what he is saying or what he is trying to say. 14. The isolation of the single line “I do not think they will sing to me” achieves a feeling that he has very low self-confidence. It implies that he might be the only one that they would not sing to, that is why the line is alone, because he feels alone. 15. Three adjectives that would describe the final image of the poem are sad, disappointing, and pathetic.
