To Celia is a sock numbers with a simple intravenous feeding limit rhyme scheme (abcbabcb), scripted in source person. The over in all shade of the poetry is dreamy, optimistic, persistent, and gullibly innocent. The rhythm is smooth, and pensive, and seems to cliff into an iambic pentameter. The poem gives the ref an refer sense of this macrocosms go to bed, and obsession for the woman of his desire, Celia. I scaned this poem as having a theme of wooly deal. I imagined that Celia is his ex- cutr, he motionless is in love with her, and destinys her to come back to him.In the premier(prenominal) stanza, the strong feelings he has for her are show metaphorically by canvas his love to throwing wine-coloured, and Joves Nectar, an elixir for immortality. He is intoxicated by her, and cant proceed without her. In the premiere line Drink to me, alto riseher with thine eye And I will pledge with mine, he is asking Celia to look at him with her eyes, and split him she belt up loves him, he will in turn promise himself to her. Or set off a kiss just in the cup And Ill non look for wine gist If that is too much to ask, at least show him in whatsoever mode that she still cares for him, and that will as least satisfy him. The thirst that from the intellect doth rise Doth ask a drink divine, the desire and love he has for her is burning deep inside of him, and he needs her. But might I of Joves nectar sup I would non change for thine, substance he cannot live without her. If he were given the authorise of immortality, he would not take it just to be with her. A florilegium is a type of eternity, in the second stanza, he expresses eternal love for her by metaphorically comparing it to the rose-cheeked miscellany. I remember the wreath withal may repre move an apology.In the first line of the second stanza, I send thee new-fangled a rosy wreath Not so much honour thee, I believe he is talking about the mistakes he made. He apply the develop late, implying that he was too late showing her his eternal love for her, and is straightway not able to have her, honoring being another denomination for having. As giving it a hope that thither It could not withered be, he is telling her he loves her hoping their love is not lost. But thou thereon didst only soupcon And sentst it back to me, she doesnt want to listen to him any much, takes a deep breath or sigh, and does not accept his apology. Since, when it grows and smells, I swear, Not of itself but thee, No way out what happens, I will ever love you, and a piece of you will incessantly be with me. Some techniques utilize in this poem are Alliteration, the use of metaphors, personification, irony, hyperbole, and peradventure allegory. Alliteration can be suss out in this poem by the wrangling that are stressed such as (highlighted in green above) in the first stanza, stresses are placed on Drink, cup, kiss, and divine. Metaphors were apply to describe his love for Celia, such as drinking the wine, the elixir of eternal life, and the rosy wreath.Personification is used in personifying Celias eyes, as if they could speak, and the thirst takes on a valet quality of rising, and asking for a drink. I popular opinion irony was present when Celia sent the wreath back, or denied his apology. The man do by this action, and continued with his protest of love for her. I animadvert hyperbole was used a lot in this poem. For example the constitutional poem seems to be a hyperbole. It is passing exaggerated, and in particular, the lines But might I of Joves nectar sup I would not change for thine, and Since, when it grows and smells, I swear, Not of itself but thee. The images are unrealistic, and cannot be taken erratumly. I thought allegory can be identified in this poem, because if you read by the poem erstwhile, you may just interpret a man courting a woman, and the woman literally returning his gift to him, not ack straightledg ing him. However I snarl that these two lot were at once very close. They loved each other, and the man did something that caused them to break up. He still is frantically in love with her, and would do anything to get her back. He apologizes to her, but it is not enough.The literal meaning is obvious, but the symbolic meaning of the poets word choices will to my interpretation. I believe three main important concepts that learn the entire poems message would be word choice, character, and symbols. Word choice is important in this poem, because the dustup used give the reader a detailed understanding of what the poet is assay to say. The words also create the resource of the poem, and set up the meaning of the symbols used throughout. For example the whole first stanza is border by words that are link up to drinking wine, such as drink, cup, wine, thirst, and nectar.The words make it easy for the reader to determine that he is comparing the love he has for Celia to drink ing wine, and the nectar of Joves. Her love is intoxicating, and value more than anything to him. In the second stanza, the word choice I noticed was more important. The words late, rosy wreath, honouring, withered, breath, grows, smell, and swear, to me all had in depth meaning. For example late lead me to believe he had made a mistake. Rosy wreath suggested eternal love, and an apology. Honouring took on the meaning of having. Withered reminded me of dyeing, and lost love.Breath implied her presence, and disapproval. Grows, tells the reader that his love for her has only gotten stronger. Smell implies a sense of lingering, as if her essence is still all around him. Swear implies a promise to oneself, and he promises to always love her. The tone of the poem I describe as dreamy, optimistic, persistent, and gullibly innocent. I think this tone is important in getting the poets manner across to the reader. The rhythm of the poem contributes to the tone because it is smooth and pens ive. The poem is read in a smooth whimsical way, and meagrely imploring.I thought it was dreamy because of the flowery lecture used, and the whimsical way it read through. sanguine because he is hopeful that Celia still loves him, persistent, because he goes into length describing his love, and gullibly innocent, because even though it is pass away Celia wants nothing to do with him anymore, he still holds onto the love he has for her. The symbols I thought were interesting, and really led me to discovering an underlying meaning to this poem. Examples of the symbol used in this poem are the eyes, Joves Nectar, the rosy wreath, and Celias breath.When the poet opens with mentioning thine eyes, it symbolizes that they are close, and he knows what she is feeling without her speaking. The eyes create intimacy in the poem. Joves Nectar symbolizes immortality, and his love. His love will neer die for her. The rosy wreath symbolizes eternity, on how he will love her forever, and also I believe the wreath serves as a symbol for the apology he is giving her. Celias breath symbolizes her throw overboard from him. She does not take him in, but exhales. This symbolizes her rejecting him.I think these symbols were very influential in the way I interpreted this poem. In conclusion, I really enjoyed this poem, and digging into its underlying meaning. At first I found the linguistic process very hard to follow, and read it so many times I now have it memorized. I researched other peoples thoughts online, and realized that I had taken a different perspective on the poem compared to other reviews. I always find it interesting to see how other than people think, and how the meanings of these poems take life in the individual depending on their own experiences.
