My Francis. Cousin Kate 2
Discussing the view point of different people in Cousin Kate was interesting, society see The 'cottage maiden' as 'an outcast thing', however they see 'O cousin Kate' as 'good and pure' this is becuase he 'bound her with his ring' Kate got wed before loosing her virginity, society see 'cottage maiden' as cheap and easy because he 'lured her into his palace house' though her 'love was true' and Kates was 'written in sand' i believe Rosetti included these lines, showing the innocent cottage maiden is still innocent and 'good and pure' however, she was tricked into loosing her virginity by the lord, Rosetti potrays the lord as bad, he is the only male in the poem so our attention is focused on him throughout, again his negative hurtful ways potray men as bad, just like Goblin market did. I have written more about this in the essay we were set for homework.
