Alas! the fowls of heaven have wings,
And blasts of heaven will aid their flight;
They mount -how short a voyage brings
The wanderers back to their delight!
Chains tie us down by land and sea;
And wishes, vain as mine, may be
All that is left to comfort thee.

Perhaps some dungeon hears thee groan,
Maimed, mangled by inhuman men;
Or thou upon a desert thrown
Inheritest the lion's den;
Or hast been summoned to the deep,
Thou, thou, and all thy mates, to keep
An incommunicable sleep.


====================
These are part of "The affliction of Margaret" by William Wordworth's poem.
I need some images or pictures for each stanza.
Help me!!

Well I think if you go to each line and look at the nouns, you could draw pictures of each of the things.

Draw: fowls of heaven (birds)
blasts of heaven (wind)
they mount (take off)
back to their delight (land)
chains, land, sea
wishes (maybe on a star?)
comfort (maybe comfort someone else)

dungeons
maimed, mangled
desert
lion's den
the deep (the ocean)
all thy mates (a crowd)
sleep
