In "Kubla Khan," Coleridge depicts the creation and obliteration of Kubla Khan's royal residence in the exotic location of Xanadu, which gives the lyric an dreamlike quality. Through the authentic character of Kubla Khan, Coleridge utilizes the wild picture of the Mongols to recommend that Kubla Khan is crazy, inferring that every single innovative activity are the demonstrations of mad men.
The last lines carry the sonnet to a climatic close. Glimmering eyes bring out the picture of passionate creativity. By discussing ""holy dread," Coleridge recommends that creation is both sacrosanct and devilish.
