During part the seventh another ship came along and appeared to be steering his way he man on the other boat was curious about what was the shining light on the mariners boat.

As he got closer he saw a group lifeless people standing in a line the boat sailed slowly. The mariner felt like he was lifeless like hid crew mates as the boat crumbled to bits as he floated across the sea.

The sailer in the other boat dragged the mariner onto the boat. He forced the truth out of the mariner for something that seemed quite starnge in a normal humans point of view. So as they sailed along the sea the mariner told the sailer his journey and the sailer was shocked about how he is still living today.

I think that the lesson of this story is to not harm something that has not harmed you for example in this story when the mariner killed the albertross.

On part the sixth of the rime of the ancient mariner their were two voices speaking and questioning about the previous events in the story such as the ship shooting off the rain the wind and the mariners crew. Later on in the story he could not pray I know this because in the poem it says `I could not draw my eyes from theirs (his crew) Nor turn them up and pray.` Suddenly the spell was gone it was almost like they were playing with the mariner. They saw a light they we quite curious, we established that it was a seraph man. After that the man on the sail started to fear the seraph man just like when the wedding guest the feared the mariner.

At the start of part the fifth there was a slight change in the story,we established that things started to go his way such as light rain, the ship moving and his crew mates came back to help move the ship. The mariner got knocked out by the speed of the ship this tells us that it was no ordinary thing moving the ship.

Meanwhile he was knocked out two voices began to speak in his head it sounded like the woman and death speak about the man that loved the albatross that loved him. We thought that the spirit of the albatross was under the ship.

My metaphor: He stuck with his o`ertaking wings And chased along this tells me that the storm was so strong it swept up everything in its way.

What I think will happen next in The Rime Of The Ancient Mariner is that the mariner will start to sail again and then different birds will appear then he will just stare at it thinking about the albertross. Then as they disappear the clouds will form a shape of an albertross. He will also be granted with plenty of food and water to last the journey.

In part the fourth we established that that he feared the ancient mariner because he said ” I fear thee, ancient Mariner! I fear thy skinny hand!” After he said he feared the ancient mariner he tried to pray but he couldn’t because earlier we found out that they had no water to drink to speak again. Then he thought their was no point of living so he closed his eyes and thought it was all a dream. Later on he started to bless the horrible things around him. Before you knew it he lifted the curse.
