    Paper 2: Explication of Glory of Women The poem “Glory of Women” written by Siegfried Sassoon can best be described as a direct address to women during the time of WWI. The title, “Glory of Women,” is quite ironic seeing as though the term “glory” carries a great religious affiliation.

Additionally, another irony present is Sassoon’s utilization of sonnet form for…

    from the rest of the sonnet. In most of the sonnet, the negative rhyming words that stick out the most emphasize the speaker’s negative experiences with mortality. Examples include “feud” and “rude” in the sestet, and “mortality” and “die” in the octave. This last pair is an off-rhyme, which makes the speaker’s tone seem lost and confused. Throughout the sonnet, the speaker is deep in his thoughts and memories, but has trouble getting some of them across. For example, in the first tercet,…

Most lines contain eight syllables, which are used to create a familiar and repetitive rhythm that could be easily compared to the repetitive nature of rural life. At first glance, this seems to be a romantic piece of poetry describing the idyllic life the shepherd…
