Setting He uses the setting as imagery as well as natural things such as sky, rivers, valley, hill, and rocks. The poem is a description of London in the morning and how he thinks it is really remarkable and eye-catching. In the first six lines he just describes it and how no body wouldn't be moved by that marvelous scenery from Westminster Bridge; in lines nine through fourteen he compares the scene he saw to nature because natural scenes are always beautiful and “smokeless” (Not polluted) and he also said that the view he saw is even more beautiful than any “Valley, rock, or hill”. The poet saw London in the morning and it’s the most important reason why London is so beautiful, everybody is sleeping, there is no noise what so ever, no steam engines running to cause smoke, and nobody is in the streets of London.
Through the writers chose of diction personification was depicted throughout the poem. “Earth has not anything to show more fair:” This personification is used for exaggeration to emphasis how lovely the city really was in the eyes of the persona and to feel how the writer felt when looking upon the Westminster Bridge. This can also be seen in lines 4,12,13 and 14. The run on line from line 2 to 3 is to show the fluidity of the personas idea which is, how beautiful the city is in the early mornings. There is no consistent rhyme scheme this shows how even though there were so many things around in the morning such as ship towers domes theaters the morning as still a calm and peace one.
