N this task, you will write a short essay that contrasts how a poem sounds when read in its original form to how that poem sounds when heard as a song.
Part A
Choose one of the following pairs of poems and songs:
âThe Lady of Shalottâ by Alfred Tennyson; song âThe Lady of Shalottâ by Loreena McKennitt
âBecause I Could Not Stop for Deathâ by Emily Dickinson; song âBecause I Could not Stopâ by Natalie Merchant
âPromises Like Pie-Crustâ by Christina Rossetti; song âPromises Like Pie-Crustâ by Carla Bruni
âThe Two Treesâ by William Butler Yeats; song âThe Two Treesâ by Loreena McKennitt
Plan to read the text version of the poem and listen to the song version a few times to get a good feel for the rhythm of each of the two versions. Then, think about how it contributes to the feeling and meaning of the poem in both situations.
Write a short essay (200â400 words) comparing the two versions of the poem, considering the following questions:
How does the meter of the poem change, if at all, when it is presented in song form?
Does the original poem have a meter that lends itself well to song lyrics?
How, if at all, is the poem changed or presented differently as a song?
Why might the artist have made changes to the poem?
