Read the passage. “Too quick for groan or sigh, Each turned his face with a ghastly pang And cursed me with his eye.… (And I heard nor sigh nor groan) With heavy thump, a lifeless lump, They dropped down one by one.” In Samuel Taylor Coleridge’s “The Rime of the Ancient Mariner,” why doesn’t the Mariner hear any of the men sigh or groan as they die? They turn away and won’t look or speak to the Mariner. They are cursing him instead of sighing and groaning. They were making too much noise thumping on the deck. They sicken and die too quickly to make any sound.
