The poem starts off describing the Angel’s world (Heaven) as a beautiful place. The Angels themselves are also beautiful and they are sinless and divine. Eventually this beautiful realm fell under the control of Tempters and Demons and became miserable and desolate. However, in the end, the Angel was able to successfully defeat the Demon and restore his beloved ones and his world to their former, pure and beautiful selves. **The Return** is a poem about the return of people from all nations to God when they die. The poem describes the many different parts of the world where people live: the place where trees thrive, the place where people mine silver and gold, the place where gems are found, the place where coral grows ect… Even with all of these different backgrounds, everyone on earth is related through God. When people on this earth die, they will all reunite with one another in heaven. **The Hymn of Thanks** is a poem that gives praise and thanks to God, in particular Jesus Christ, for sacrificing pain in order to save us; Jesus went through a lot of pain and temptation while he was man on Earth. Because of this, Jesus understands the pain that humans suffer, allowing people to turn to him when we need help. **Autumn** describes the change in nature from the summer season to the fall season. Summer, in terms of nature, is analogous to a strong warrior; summer is nature’s “prime” moment just like being a “strong warrior” is the “prime time” in a man’s life. Autumn is when nature starts to “die.” Chilling rains fall, clouds form, and woods and leaves start to fall. This poem compares autumn to a warrior getting sick, tired and dying. **The Ring** is a Ballard that talks about the marriage of a Venetian maid and a man. The man tells the maid that he truly loves her and he will risk his
