Pope's way of dealing with life and its problems seemed to be on the theory that everything was left to God, and "whatever is is right." Ultimately, God's plan will be fulfilled and nothing will change or deviate the outcomes of your life from what He intended. Throughout Pope's An Essay of Man, it seemed to me that God can only make us aware of what we can adequately handle or understand. So the reason why the Lamb did not panic when he "licked the hand about to shed his blood", and it would also seem that he is saying that man has no idea what angels are capable of doing or what they have planned for humanity. I also believe that even the simplest man, "the Indian", knew that the only way to be close to God and understand some of his views was to look through nature and that the world is safer for those who are sorry. lessons from the rest of the world. Then Pope goes on to show that God favors no one and that everyone's problems are equal in all areas, with no favoritism to the "hero" or the "sparrow", and Pope shows that the death of both has a similar meaning to the eyes of God. . We are all blind to the Lord's plan, and when something that He has planned comes to pass, we may be like the mole and have dimly seen it, or we may be like the lynx with a beam of sight and full understanding of it. the situation. In the end, however, it once again comes down to what the lord will do, from dust to dust we shall return. Blake has a similar view on life and the problems associated with it, and he is very keen to show that God is the almighty power over everything we do in life. The first poem I got this from was The Lamb, and how he asks the Lamb “do you know who made you?” My obvious interpretation of this statistic... middle of paper ...... reality, and he talks about being underwater with sea maidens -- mermaids perhaps -- with crowns of 'algae. All this until “human voices wake us and we drown”; like it was all a dream and he wakes up to drown in the reality of all the insecurities they were talking about earlier, and never having had the chance to talk with this woman of his dreams. So, in my opinion, reading the authors; I believe that Pope and Blake, unlike Eliot, relied heavily on Jesus and the afterlife to guide them in all their decisions as to what would be best for them and their families. Eliot was motivated by his own flaws and seemed to put things off thinking he always had time with his problems, and in the end all his problems ended up drowning him either metaphorically or in reality and he may have ended his life because of the overwhelming pressures of life on him.
