The Ancient Mariner

Part the first

  1. The ancient Mariner Accosted a wedding guest and alerted him of a ship after he had forced him to listen, as the wedding guest sat on a nearby rock.
  2. They boarded the boat then the Mariner lead the way across the sea to the place they were going to.
  3. A tyrannous and strong storm awaited them as something was chasing them south.
  4. They were now out of the storm and into the coldness of Antarctica to find an albatross, it came every day to eat and play

Part the second

  1. The ancient Mariner had shot the albatross with his cross bow, he is despondent and is regretting his actions.
  2. The ancient Mariner had thought that by killing the bird he’d take away all the fog and mist but instead it brought the fog and mist.
  3. They realised that they had no food or water left and started to dream about it, when in reality there was none.
  4. When the Mariner dies he believes that Instead of his cross, an albatross will hang around his neck. I think this means that another albatross will avenge the fellow albatross that the ancient Mariner killed.
