“A Description of the Morning” by Jonathan Swift and the “Prelude” by TS Eliot both present a vision of the morning in a certain city. Both draw attention to urban environments. and the daily routine of ordinary people. In a bigger picture, the lack of personal contact that each person has with others. However, while the first poem presents a clearer description between the upper class and the lower class, showing that these two classes rarely interacted with each other. This last poem seeks to highlight some sad and squalid aspects of modern city life through specific, forceful but symbolic images. TS Eliot's title “Prelude's” introduces the fact that each prelude will have a different image, which then links into a single theme. The poems' urban settings and themes show that both Swift and Eliot can reject the “country” lifestyle. This is shown in Swift's poem in the lines "The jailer now sees his returning flock, / Duly released by night to steal for pay" (Lines 14-16). Here Swift points to a pastor who becomes a prison guard to free inmates at night to steal money for bribes. Proving to us that living in the countryside was not good for this person. Both poems create unflattering and realistic views of people in the city, as opposed to the “good life” of rural characters who don't have to worry about much. In “A Description of Morning” Swift points out “The apprentice is sloppy, the chimney sweep is shrill, and Brickdust Moll screams halfway down the street” (Swift lines 12-13). Instead of showing a peaceful life on a farm, Swift shows us a scene of madness, noise, and filth. We also see this scene of chaos and desperation in Eliot's poem Preludes, “And we watched the night reveal the thousand sordid images... in the middle of the paper... of the rich. Almost asking or wanting help, something both authors imply they will never get. While reading both poems, the authors show the readers that there is dirt, dust, and mud all over the city. Showing the reader a collection of perfect visual images. In TS Eliot's “Preludes” we see dirt, mud and disorder in the lines “In the palms of Both dirty hand”, “From the sawdust trampled by the road/With all its muddy feet” (Eliot lines 8-12). And in Jonathan Swift's “A Description of Morning” we see the same affection in the lines “He had swept away the dirt and sprayed the floor,” “Prepared to clean the hall and the stairs,” and finally “The youth of exposed shackles began to trace ”(Swift lines 6-12). All these lines give the reader the same effect, that the cities are chaotic, dirty and the people are worked to the bone. Those people belong to the lower class.
