In "A Defence of Poetry,” Shelley suggests that thoughts and feelings in life are "always arising unforeseen and departing unbid

den.” Which lines from "Mutability” also reflect the idea that life is fleeting?
-We are as clouds that veil the midnight moon;
How restlessly they speed, and gleam, and quiver
-Or like forgotten lyres, whose dissonant strings
Give various response to each varying blast
-We rest.—A dream has power to poison sleep;
We rise.—One wandering thought pollutes the day
-We feel, conceive or reason, laugh or weep;
Embrace fond woe, or cast our cares away

Answer:

-We are as clouds that veil the midnight moon;

How restlessly they speed, and gleam, and quiver

In these lines, Shelley compares people to clouds that appear at night and veil the midnight moon. He states that these clouds "speed, gleam and quiver" restlessly. The metaphor is intended to reference human life. Just like the clouds, human life is brief. Therefore, these are the lines that best support the idea that life is fleeting.

Why does Edwin Arlington Robinson choose to narrate the poem “Richard Cory” from the perspective of a townsperson?
MrRissso [65]
Edwin Arlington Robinson choose to narrate the poem “Richard Cory” from the perspective of a towns person because he felt sorry for the man that what people sees him as a grand man but is lonely inside and thus killed himself. He wants to emphasize to the reader that he knew the man too well that he felt like a real human despite his life and that Richard was a very gentle man, far from what the towns people see him.
