Question

And now the storm blast came,and he
Was tyrannous and strong
He struck with his o'ertaking wings;
And chased us south along.
Describe the figure of speech in 'o'ertaking wings'.

Answer 1

The mariner describes the storm that drove the ship toward the South Pole by personifying it as a winged creature and by personifying the motion of the ship before the storm. The mariner calls the storm "he" and says that the storm "struck with his o'ertaking wings." This calls forth the image of a huge bird of prey .

Answer 2

Explanation:

In this stanza, the Mariner resumes his narrative by creating thrill and excitement from the very first line of this stanza. The Mariner says that a strong sea storm rose. ‘He’ in the third line of this stanza, refers to the storm. So, storm has been personified as very violent and fierce. The storm overtook the ship which was caught in its furry. It is to be noted that the storm has been compared to a huge and swift bird of prey or a winged monster which pounces upon the ship- its prey. The ship was forcibly driven by the storm towards the South Pole
