poor soul, the centre of my sinful earth
poor soul is a distinction between the soul and the body and how the poor soul is a centre of a sinful earth, he says our soul is pure and immortal but looses its shine (tarn) because of our sinful body. the purity has been corrupted because of our wishes and desires, and fights against the soul making it helpless. the poet personifies the soul and tells the soul not to be sad or suffer or what the body does, he tells the soul man will live for a short time on earth. he will fade away and will become useless.the poet tells us not to become victims of our body but pay attention to our soul because it is divine and eternal. he also says worms would eat up the body in the grave while the soul would rejoice and thus he tells us how the soul is superior than the body.
in the beginning the soul is pitied but at the end it is superior and powerful.
