The Ruined Maid: Thomas Hardy
Subject
An unnamed farm worker meets a friend called Melia
The farm worker is surprised at how well Melia looks
The irony is that Melia makes it clear that she is a prostitute e.g. every time she says ruined
Structure and Language
This poem is a dramatic dialogue conversation between two people which tells a story
Its set out as six, four line stanzas with a regular aabb rhyme scheme
Sound
The rhyme scheme also has full rhymes, the regular rhythm and rhyme make it sound like a playful nursery rhyme
Imagery
A pattern arises-the farm worker reminds Melia how things used to be and then comments on how much better things are now
A more obvious pattern in language is in the last line of each stanza where Melia tells her friend she's ruined
Attitudes, Themes and Ideas
The farm worker admires the obvious change in Melia, its thought that she is very naïve and doesn't understand what she is being told
Hardy's attitude is not one of disapproval to Melia he portrays her as being very knowing
Role of women in society
Is this the only way a maid could achieve independence at this time
Money isn't everything
Melia knows that the price she has had to pay outweighs the material wealth
Morals
The poem throws up a lot of questions about right and wrong
Comparison
