why does the speaker of "Sailing to Byzantium" want to abandon his mortal body? (support position with evidence)

English
1 answer:
Anon25 [30]3 years ago
7 0
The speaker wants to abandon his mortal body because bodies as they age become old, raggedy, and useless. He says "An aged man is but a paltry thing, A tattered coat upon a stick". This shows how much he dislikes his old body and wishes to "<span>But such a form as Grecian goldsmiths make", which means he thinks that in Byzantium he will take the form of a golden statue. </span>

Which describes a purpose for a person writing a friendly letter?
labwork [276]

Answer:

The most logical answer would be to tell a relative about the places the person visited while on summer vacation.

I hope this helps! :)
