I like to see it lap the miles, And lick the valleys up,
And stop to feed itself at tanks;
And then prodigious, step
Around a pile of mountains,
And, supercilious, peer
In shanties by the sides of roads;
And then a quarry pare
To fit its sides, and crawl between,
Complaining all the while
In horrid, hooting stanza;
Then chase itself down hill
And neigh like Boanerges;
Then, punctual as a star
Stop-docile and omnipotent-
At its own stable door
This poem describes a train as if it were a horse. Examine the imagery of the stanza in bold. What does it describe?
The way a train moves along mountains and through cities
The way a train makes horses stop to watch them go by
o The way a train sounds when it rumbles past a building
The way a train has made horse-drawn carriages useless

he is. some of his decisions were very irresponsible and did lead to the death of both romeo and juliet, such as him marrying them too quick or him not clarifying romeo's plan with him.

basically he did not think things through well enough or at all.

hope this
