We all have that,well most have I suspect , a shifting feeling of the unknown.

I wonder if our ancestors would not have been surprised to see things whilst in the

 stressful and frightening thrall of storms at sea. Thank you for this blog it is quite interesting.

I agree...my favorite section is when......

The church doors burst open, and the wedding party streams outside. The Mariner declares to the Wedding-Guest that he who loves all God’s creatures leads a happier, better life; he then takes his leave.

The Guest walks away from the party, stunned, and awakes the next morning “a sadder and a wiser man.”

Bravo, li’l bro! Ah, how well you have brought back to Mariner to us. And I love how you’ve explained, almost patiently, to us little details so that we can fully appreciate this poem. Through your post, one senses the evocative imagery of the poem. Now soon I will have to reread Coleridge’s Mariner, and with a better appreciatio. Thank you.
