Power and control Remember for each poem we analyse
the focus must continue to be on this theme.
How does the poet present this theme? What forms of power and control are
being discussed?

Ozymandias I met a traveller from an antique landWho said: Two vast and trunkless legs of stoneStand in the desert. Near them on the sand,Half sunk, a shatter’d visage lies, whose frownAnd wrinkled lip and sneer of cold commandTell that its sculptor well those passions readWhich yet survive, stamp’d on these lifeless things,The hand that mock’d them and the heart that fed;And on the pedestal these words appear:‘My name is Ozymandias, king of kings:Look on my works, ye Mighty, and despair!’Nothing beside remains. Round the decayOf that colossal wreck, boundless and bare,The lone and level sands stretch far away. PERCY BYSSHE SHELLEY

Pride comes before a fall
How does it relate?

Statements - True or false The poem explores power and status. The poet admires Ozymandias. Ozymandias was once a proud, tyrannical ruler. The poem suggests we have all the time in the world. The poem is about legacies and what we leave behind after
we die. The poet suggests that pride comes before a fall. The poem is about time and nature and how man cannot
conquer either. Shelley suggests that art and language will outlast humans
and other legacies of power. The reader is left to imagine the sculptor as well as
Ozymandias’ character. It is ironic that it is the sculptor’s legacy that will last and not
Ozymandias’ power.
