Adonais and elegy. \xa0The structure it shares with Lycidas: the world is "empty and poor" now. \xa0The dead person's absence makes the world into a world of absence. \xa0But this is not a world suitable to that person. \xa0So he's in a better place. \xa0But I am born darkly, fearfully afar. \xa0Echoes of The Eve of St. Agnes at the end of Adonais. \xa0Neoplatonism. \xa0Dante. \xa0And so to The Triumph of Life. \xa0Terza rima. \xa0The question of how Triumph would have ended. \xa0Abrams's distortions. \xa0The opening of the poem.
