The theme of Christina Georgina Rossetti's poem "Helen Grey" is, beauty isn't everything. We know this to be true because the Rossetti describes Helen Grey as "handsome" and "proud" but also says "But so you miss that modest charm / Which is the surest charm of all." This shows the reader that Helen Grey is very attractive and takes pride in her attraction. However, she has let her beauty go to her head, resulting in an unpleasant personality that no man has found her attractive. The last four lines of the poem "Helen Grey" support the its main theme by drawing the reader's attention to the reality of age and time. Time will continue to go by causing Helen to grow old, wrinkly, and gray. Time will pass and with it, Helen's beauty shall pass too. If she does not  change her ways, she will be left with and unattractive personality, and face.

The Answer is

"and fading years will make you old;
then in their turn will men seem cold,
when you yourself are nipped and grey."
Helen will out grow her beauty and men will stop falling for her. In the end, only her personality will be what remains of her.

According to Virginia Woolf, the things that a woman needs in order to successfully write are:

1. self-esteem and a clear goal for writing

3. financial security

4. a room to be alone

In <em>A Room of One's Own</em>, one of her non-fiction books, Virginia Woolf states that a woman needs certain things in order to be successful as a writer. First of all, <u>she believed that a woman needed financial security, that is to say money, in order to be independent</u>. Moreover,<u> for her it was very important that a woman had a room of her own in order to focus exclusively in what she wanted to write</u>. Furthermore, according to Virginia Woolf, <u>self-esteem and a clear goal were also vital to create a good literary work</u>. On the other hand, she considered that a husband and children were distractions to a woman that wanted to become a novelist.
