My Last Duchess And Musee Des Beaux Arts
The Poems “My Last Duchess” by Robert Browning and “Musee des Beaux
Arts” by W.H. Auden describes how people don’t care about each other and
that world is cruel. In “My Last Duchess” the guy is talking the messenger
from the duchess about how he killed his wife and was happy about it, whereas in
“Musee des Beaux Arts” the kid is dying in water but his father or not even
the people in the ship care about him, they just let him drown in the water and
lastly the poem “The Sick Rose” by William Blake has perfect metaphor
reflecting the behavior and feeling of a human being by comparing love to an

and beautiful. She had a good heart, which loved everyone and made everyone glad
but the author did not like the fact she considers everyone same as him and that
she does not pay more attention to him than others. The author also gave her a
gift but she considered all the gifts as the same and did not differentiate
between a bad and a good gift. In other she did not care about author’s
feeling and the love that author had for her. The author says, “Just this Or
that in you disgusts me; here you miss, Or there you exceed the mark”
(Browning 550) which represents that she treats everyone equal and did not give
more importance to author. She considers author as one of nine hundred men that
