  • I believe that the articles used in this paper were scholarly, however, I am not positive because I was unable to click on the link that would be in each source’s bibliography. However, the quotes that were used helped to strengthen your paper.

  • It was very useful for you to reference certain lines of the poem within your paper. It allowed the reader to understand what was being explained in the poem in a more comprehending way. 

  • I would say to just remember to write your conclusion at the end. Also, don’t forget to do you bibliography, and other basic MLA format needs for your paper. Things such as your name, professors name, page numbers, etc. Lastly, I don’t think that you need to label your paragraphs because it is not a report.

  • For the most part your quotes are integrated nicely, however, I would combine a few of these paragraphs together in order to make for a stronger concept of a main idea. 

  • Your one source seems scholarly, but I would definitely find at least one more source to discuss.  I would also elaborate more on the first source you already have.
  • You did a good job explaining each stanza, except the beginning of the introduction was a little confusing until you introduced the poem.
  • The biggest thing would be to find more sources, to write a conclusion, and to connect the sources to your interpretation as well.
  • For siting, remember to cite the lines you used from the poem.

  • I think it would be best to find another source for the essay as it will support your argument more. However, the source that you have is very scholarly but you should talk about it a little more. 
  • Incorporating the poem into your essay was very beneficial as to understanding what was going on. I would suggest looking at the layout and rearranging some stuff to make it flow more. 
  • The biggest concern about the essay would be to finish the conclusion, and to expand more on your sources. Also I would find at least one more source.
  • For the in-text citation, make sure you add a citation for the actual poem lines that are included.
