The poem ‘Ozymandias’ is a Petrarchan sonnet, as can be determined from its 10-syllable lines and the change in the argument after line 8. It contains rich imagery and an element of enigma, much like the structure of ‘Rime of the Ancient Mariner’ by Coleridge. The sonnet by Shelley appears to tell a story, as […]
