From the antique


  • Reflection on their life and why they don't think they'll be remembered 
  • Possibly suicidal
  • Unloved
  • Sadness and melancholy
  • Calm poem 
  • String rhythm 
  • Consistent rhyme scheme - strong and steady 
  • Despondency - cynical 
  • 2 narrators - 1st line
  • 1st person narrative 
  • Themes of alienation and oppression 
  • The place of women in Victorian society - "women's lot"
