In the poems “London” by William Blake and “Ozymandias” by Percy Bysshe Shelley, each author utilizes imagery and symbolism to help project the theme that even the most remarkable societies can reach their downturn. For example, Blake capitalizes on auditory imagery when describing how “youthful Harlots curse” (14). London was a place known for its proper and upscale culture, but the detail of young prostitutes cursing on these same streets puts the decline of this once glorious city into context. Shelley also uses imagery, although visually, to describe the statue of Ozymandias as a “colossal wreck” (15) surrounded by “level sands [that] stretch far away” (16). Ozymandias is the Greek name for the Ramses II whose rule was a period of greatness for Ancient Egypt. By describing his statue and its surroundings in this way, he is emphasizing the point of how such a magnificent civilization can fall. Along with imagery, Blake employs symbolism when describing the sight of “Chimney-sweepers cry[ing]” (9). Historically Chimney-sweepers were often an overlooked part of London society; being just children, they suffered abuse, unsanitary conditions, and unfair treatment. Blake uses the pain and suffering of chimney-sweepers as a symbol for the deterioration of a once prosperous London. Shelley utilizes the statue as a symbol when describing the sculpture as “two vast and trunkless legs of stone” (2). Illustrating the statue as one that has no torso indicates that the sculpture is in ruins. A statue once so grand yet now in ruins symbolizes the rise and fall of the most dignified empires. Despite these similarities, their uses of syntax and tone are quite different stressing their difference in speakers. For instance, Blake utilizes a traditional four-line stanza with each sentence spanning two lines: “I wander thro’ each charter’d street,/Near where the charter’d Thames does flow” (1-2). This style of writing is more classical indicating the nature of the speaker: he is a traditional London upperclassman walking through a part of town that is unfamiliar to him. On the contrary, the majority of Shelley’s poem is a lengthy quote from a traveler the speaker met. This traveler tells the speaker of “Two vast and trunkless legs of stone…” (2). The author’s choice of including a quote makes the poem story-like suggesting that the speaker is telling the story of the traveler he met. Accompanying their different use of syntax, both speakers use different tones throughout their poems. Blake describes the “marks of woe” (4) in every face he meets. This sense of despair creates a somber tone indicating that the speaker notes every sign of sorrow in each person: this makes it clear that he is an outsider to this area of London. In comparison, Shelley's poem tells the story of another person who teases Ozymandias as being the “king of kings” (13). This teasing develops a mocking tone as he ridicules Ozymandias with the false impression that his glory would last forever. Taunting the ‘king of kings’ demonstrates that the speaker is telling a story in order to poke fun at Ramses II. “London” and “Ozymandias” both employ different uses of syntax and tone which help to create distinct speakers who tell a story of how even remarkable societies can fall.
