For instance, the first line ends with “and I still” as it is shown in the trot which cause abruptness in the line. Also, the same problem occurs in the second stanza, in line seven as it ends with “I wept from.” To solve these, I deleted “and I still” and started the second line with “and I wandered” since the meaning is semantically understood from the context. As for line seven, I moved “I wept from” to the…
Thunder strikes. A lonesome hearse rolls along a dirt road at dusk, Jacob Marley quietly laying inside. This is one of the many dramatic scenes describing the tale of, "A Christmas Carol," in the Patrick Stewart version.

In Lake Isle of Innisfree Yeats uses very clear and vivid images as well as other poetic techniques throughout the poem which captivates and engulfs readers as he takes us into his dream.
