    So for my English exam, this is my plan of study for the poets:

    1. Derek Mahon:
    - A Day Trip to Donegal
    - Ecclesiastes
    - A Disused Shed in Co Wexford
    - Antarctica
    - After the Titanic
    - Rathlin

    2. Sylvia Plath:
    - Poppies in July
    - Mirror
    - Child
    - Morning Song
    - Black Rook in Rainy Weather
    - The Arrival of the Bee Box

    3. William Wordsworth
    - To My Sister
    - She Dwelt Among the Untrodden Ways
    - Skating
    - The Solitary Reaper
    - What a Beauteous Evening
    - Lines Composed Upon Westminster Bridge or The Stolen Boat (undecided)

    4. Gerard Manley Hopkins
    - As Kingfishers Catch Fire....
    - Felix Randal
    - Spring
    - God's Grandeur
    - No Worse, There is None
    - Thou Art Indeed Just, Lord

    And I have Shakespeare covered in class but I don't want to revise him even though I'm terrified none of my chosen poets will come up...
    Anyway, what poems would you recommend covering if you're doing Shakespeare?
    Is there any poems that you think I should switch in my other poets so that the poems 'fit' better together?
