this poem is about how Hardy thinks that from
the very beginning, when the ship (the titanic),
was being built, nature was building it's own
equivalent (the iceberg).Hardy talks aboyut how
man's arrogance at trying to out-do nature
is confronted by nature's ability to defeat
mankind. To add effect Hardy uses alliteration
and personification. I hope this helps.
