Notes

In Xanadu which is a place that symbolize beauty and perfection, Kubla Khan who is a mongolian emperor requested to build an splendid domed building for pleasure on the sacred river Alph. This river was so vast that it ran through a lot caves and into dark seas. So, it was unmeauserable by no one.
They build a space with 10 miles of prolific soil surrounded by walls and towers. In that space, there were gardens, rivers, trees and an old forest where sun caress all that beauty.

In this stanza, we can see how narroter is focus on nature in this poem and he talkes where he visioned an imagery place which is beyond beauty. He depicts his vision so vividly that when a reader reads it, they envision an Eden like place or a paradise like place. In adition to that, his depict of nature and place take you a different world that give you happines, peacfullness and calmness unlike our indasturilazed world where people are far from their emotions and unhappy.


It was a magnificant canyon that covers the green hill which is across of cedar trees! A wild and natural place where a woman mourns for his demonic-lover underneath the pale moonlight. From this canyon, a gayser was errupting as if earth was breating for a moment. Pieces of ground scattered to air as if they were hail or harvested grain. The gayser bursted the sacred rivers' water for a moment when pieces of ground scattered to air. After it run for 5 miles through woods and dales it reached the caves which were vast an then it sinked in lifeless ocean with rumble. While it was sinking, Kubla Khan heard his ancestors voices that foreseen a war!
