Throughout history many poets have written poems about Lucifer and his fall from heaven, some of them in their poems alluded to him while describing another character, others they told his story from the Bible and other sacred books both to familiarize readers with the story and for educational purposes. George Meredith in his poem Lucifer by Starlight exposed Lucifer in some way, he focused on his fall and how he came to spread his “black planet” over the earth (line 8). Meredith was influenced by John Milton's Paradise Lost, but shifted her focus from man's disobedience to Lucifer's vengeance on humans, and how he literally came to earth to take over it with his darkness as it was established that the fate of those who follow Satan is hell “I gave my wits to these idiots! What damned fools! Go, go, you're a little” (swift line 21-22). The rudimentary theme of this poem revolves around revenge as Lucifer decided to take revenge on humans after his fall from heaven. Lucifer was a former angel in heaven, when he defied God's command by refusing to prostrate himself for Adam, God banished him from heaven. because of his pride.

He remained at the bottom of hell, in a "starry night" he feels depressed, he "relieves himself" which has two connotations different or he would realize how he was captured in hell because “starry” probably means a decisive night for Lucifer, that is, he intended to take revenge by force on humans on the “black planet in the shadow of the arctic snows” (line 8). Meredith used irony, in the first line he describes Lucifer as "prince", but in the third line he paints him as "the demon" who overwhelmingly swung......middle of paper......to commit sin when God banished him from heaven. Furthermore, Meredith resorted to paradox when he mentioned that Lucifer's darkness covered the whiteness of the snows “the black planet shadowed the arctic snows” (line 8). “larger areas,” as he flew through the air to spread his “black planet” he remembered his fall from the sky that “stung his scars.” Presenting his “scars” as a physical sign, Meredith illuminated how the hit, he couldn't forget it for a long time “old revolt”, happened long ago since he remembered it The scars can be physical and psychological as his pain is endless “In contemplation of whose ugly scars” (pope line 73). ).Therefore, every time he remembers the "old revolt", his hatred will be stronger than ever, he will strengthen his hatred towards human beings and plan how to take revenge to maintain his loss...
