Question

discuss the feelings of john milton on reaching the age of twenty three

Answer 1

Milton emphasizes the speed with which he feels time has passed by describing his days as “hasting” and “full.” Hasting certainly implies speed, although it also implies purpose. A person is told to “make haste” when they are needed somewhere. Similarly, “full” may imply that his days are busy, leaving little empty time between tasks. It seems that the time he felt pass has not been passed idly, but rather with hard work and toil.
