“Ozymandias” By Percy Bysshe Shelley “ Ozymandias” is a poem about a statue of a fallen king that has been eroded by the sand and natural desert. The theme of this poem is nature of power. Shelly uses a few sound devices to help convey the theme of his poem and keep it more enticing and helps provide it strength. The first sound device I noticed was the iambic pentameter. He used two forms of this in his poem, abab, acdc,edefef. Shelly did not follow the pattern of a usual sonnet. He should

In his article “The Loss of The Creature,” Walker Percy presents the case that human or “creature’s” experiences are most often trivial because of our preconceived notions. Percy believes we can only truly enjoy these experiences if we leave the “beaten track.” Only then can we see the true beauty of the experience. Percy gives three examples to prove his point. His first example describes a tourist’s plans to go see the Grand Canyon. Oftentimes, tourists have preconceived expectations about
