What to Focus On

  • Three stages of life are shown: birth, marriage, and death.
  • Each stage is connected with a time of day.
  • Each cloth has a symbolic colour.
  • Break of day is linked with birth.
  • The blue garment is for a new-born child.
  • 'Gay' means bright and cheerful.
  • Fall of night is linked with marriage.
  • The purple and green garment is for a queen's marriage veil.
  • 'Like the plumes of a peacock, purple and green' is a simile.

Common Mistakes to Avoid

The three stanzas describe three different cloths only, not three stages of human life.

The blue cloth in the first stanza is for the queen, because blue looks royal.

The second stanza happens in the morning because it sounds bright and joyful.

Memory Tips

Three stages of life in the poem

Stanza 1: break of day, blue cloth, new-born child

Stanza 2: fall of night, purple and green, queen's marriage veil

Stanza 3: moonlight chill, white cloth, dead man's funeral shroud
