Answer 4

hmm.well i think that this is way 2 late but i use the lake isle of inis free...but it didnt come up so i ess it doesnt matter

hope you did ok and good luck for tomorrow!!!!

Answer 5

dulce et decorum by wilfred owen

or early purges are the most common..

i have my higher level exam tomorrow too

Answer 6

i dont think that will come up. it didnt come up in past papers. i studied dulce et decourm est by wilfred own. its a war poem and its has good imagry and other techniques aswell. try that one its your best option

or a love poem: a summers day by shakespere (sonnet 18)

http://www.shakespeares-sonnets.com/xvii...

then talk about how the poet puts the theme across (you have to do it in irish too)...talk about poetic techniques again like imagry, onomatoeopia and alliteration (dictionary helps)

good luck!!

Answer 7

early purges by seamus heaney probably covers the rural part.

im only learning one poem though . . dulce et decorum by wilfred owen.
