Alfred Tennyson starts off this work by breaking down the sets of stanzas in Lady of Shalott. He describes what happens, followed by the actual text. He then goes into to detail of Ophelia, and her story. His structure changes drastically from the choppy mini paragraphs, to full scale paragraphs. His work was in depth and thorough.
It was nice getting such a detailed description because shakespeare is very tough. Tennyson made it very easy to understand and appreciate. This to me is important because today shakespeare is not as appreciated or honored. Getting the full story in such a short page and a half description can only be done by the few who truly know his workings inside and out.
