5.Using the words given above rewrite Part 1 of the poem in your own words. The first stanza has been done as an example:

It is an ancient Mariner,
And he stoppeth one of three.
‘By thy long grey beard and glittering eye,
Now wherefore stopp’st thou me?
An old sailor stopped one of the three people passing by, who asked: “Old man, with your long grey beard and glittering eye, why are you stopping me?”

Answer

An old sailor stopped one of the three people passing by, who asked: “Old man, with your long grey beard and glittering eye, why are you stopping me? The bridegroom’s doors are open and I am one of the next family members. The guests have arrived, the feast is set. Can’t you hear the merriment?”

The sailor held him with his skinny hand and said: “There was a ship.” The wedding guest, disgustingly said, “Let go of me, you lunatic person,” and dropped his hand.

However, the sailor captivated his attention with his glittering eye; the wedding guest stood still. He was all ears to the old sailor, just like a three years old child, because now the mariner had his will.

The wedding guest was left with no choice but to listen to the ancient sailor. Thus began the narration of the ancient mariner. “There was a loud cheer on board, and the harbor has clear, for the sun to rise above the church, the hill, the lighthouse.

The sun came up upon the left and shone bright all day, and set on the right, going down the sea. The sun rose higher and higher everyday till it touched the mast on noon.”

The Wedding Guest beat his breast in impatience because he could hear the loud musical instrument being played.

The bride had started walking down the hall. She was as red as the rose. Before her went a merry procession of singers and musicians.

The wedding guest didn’t have a choice but to hear. Thus continued the mariner: “Then came the storm, severe and strong. The storm overtook them, and chased the ship southwards.

The cruel torturous ways of the storm is described here. The storm blew harsh, yelled and chased them towards south. The ship’s steer hung low.

They witnessed both mist and snow. The weather became wondrous cold with ice everywhere as bright and clear as emerald.

The floating ice and steep sides of the ice-bergs formed a dismayed sheen, that is, a smooth bright surface of ice.

There was ice all around them. The ice cracked, growled, roared and howled, like noises of a person in a fainting fit.

Then, the albatross arrived through the fog. It was hailed in God’s name, as a Christian soul.

It ate the food it had never eaten and flew round the ship. Then, a miracle occurred, when the ice cracked and the helmsman could steer the ship through the ice.

Throughout their journey down south, the albatross followed them, and everyday, came for food or play, at the call of the mariners. The nights turned to become “glimmered” like “the white moonshine.”

Part 1 of the poem concludes with the ancient mariner possessing an ill omen about the albatross. This part of the narration gave the ancient mariner a troubled look. When asked the reason for the same by the wedding guest, the mariner let it out and revealed the terrible truth that he shot the albatross.
