Sibilance

Q 1,  I looked upon the rotting sea, And drew my eyes away; I looked upon the rotting deck, and there the dead men lay.       Why did the poet repeat this phrase ‘I looked’?         Answer, It shows that he isn’t looking at the sea any differently from the deck. It also draws your attention.

Q 2, Finish later
