Samuel Taylor Coleridge's "The Rime of the Ancient Mariner" marked the shift to British Romanticism and the modernity of poetry. This poem was published in 1798 and describes the experiences of a mariner who shot an albatross after getting caught in icy Antarctic waters.

Let's make a list of some of the nouns that occur in this poem. First, let's make sure we understand the meaning of a "noun." A noun is a word the represents or names a person, place, thing, quality, event, or idea. I will bold the nouns as they appear in the lines of poetry:

"'By they long grey beard and glittering eye."

"The guests are met, the feast is set"

"The Wedding-Guest sat on a stone."

"The ship was cheered, the harbor cleared."

"The bride hath paced into the hall"
