Traditional Ballads

Traditional Ballads

I have decided to compare ‘The Dying Cowboy’ and ‘The three Ravens’ the reason I choose these two poems is because they have both a similar subject death!

‘The Dying Cowboy’ is about a cowboy who as he is walking down the road meets another cowboy who is rapped in white linen

I spied a poor cowboy all wrapped in white linen
The Dying Cowboy line 3

This line to me says the cowboy is already dead as he is ‘wrapped in white linen’ but the cowboy is not dead as we find out in the next few lines. I fell that the author did this to create shock as the audience would by surprised when the cowboy is still alive as they had thought he was dead. A few lines on in the poem the cowboy wrapped in the white linen says to the cowboy passing by:

‘‘I see by your outfit that you are a cowboy’
 These words he did say as I boldly walked by.  
‘Come sit down beside me and hear my sad story’
		The Dying Cowboy Line 5-6

They way Passing cowboy says ‘as I boldly walked by’ to me suggests that he has something to prove to the cowboy
