Page two focuses specifically on the symbolic imagery in The Farmer's Bride poem, particularly examining the use of animal similes to characterize the bride's vulnerability.
Quote: "shy as a leveret"
Vocabulary: Leveret - a young hare in its first year
Highlight: The analysis explores how animal imagery serves dual purposes: depicting the bride's innocence while also suggesting the farmer's dehumanizing perspective of her as property.
Example: The comparison between the bride and animals emphasizes both her vulnerability and the farmer's tendency to view her as a possession rather than a human being.
The page concludes with suggestions for strengthening the analysis through additional textual evidence, emphasizing the importance of supporting arguments with specific quotes from both poems in grade 9 poetry comparison love and relationships essays.

The first page delves into the complex portrayal of love and control in both Porphyria's lover and The Farmer's Bride. The analysis reveals how both poems present romantic relationships marred by manipulation and dominance.
Quote: "Porphyria worshipped me"
Highlight: The analysis emphasizes how the male protagonist in Porphyria's Lover exercises control through silence and psychological manipulation, demonstrated by the line "no voice replied."
Definition: The term "masochistic" is used to describe the controlling nature of relationships in both poems, referring to behavior characterized by deriving pleasure from domination.
Example: The speaker's godlike positioning in Porphyria's Lover is demonstrated through his complete control over the female character's fate.
The comparison draws parallels between physical destruction in Porphyria's Lover and mental destruction in The Farmer's Bride, highlighting different manifestations of toxic control in romantic relationships.
