William Butler Yeats
When you are old and grey and full of sleep,
And nodding by the fire,take down this book,
And slowly read, and dream of the soft lookYour eyes had once, and of their shadows deep; How many loved your moments of glad grace, And loved your beauty with love false or true, But one man loved the pilgrim Soul in you ,And loved the sorrows of your changing face; And bending down beside the glowing bars,Murmur, a little sadly, how Love fled And paced upon the mountains overhead ,And hid his face amid a crowd of stars.

This was the experience and the dilemma for these women writers and this was also a common longing for most women.2 Which writer was the most reserved in her descriptions of feelings? Why do we still read her books?
Jane Austin was most reserved in her description of personal feelings. We read her books for their humour, irony and characterization.3 In which way were George Eliot's books similar to those of Charles Dickens?George Eliot's books were concerned with the way
social pressures made people behave badly or stu-
pidly, while Charles Dickens novels are concerned
with injustice in society. So both are concerned with society and its effect on the individual but they deal with it from different points of views.4 In which way were George Eliot's books similar to those of Charlotte Bronte?George Eliot describes the personal distress that
people bring upon themselves when they behave
badly according to the expectations of society at
That time. Charlotte Bronte describes how emotional
necessity makes people behave against the expected
behaviour of society. So they are both concerned with
how a person's feelings affect their decisions.discussionTo marry for love, or to marry for money? What is your understanding of marrying well?HomeworkThank you
