Pope wrote this poem when he was only 12. He
loved nature and hated city, and this poem expressed
his longing for a pastoral life.
The poem’s rhyme scheme is

Pope wrote his first verses at the age of 12. His breakthrough work, AN ESSAY ON CRITICISM (1711), appeared when he was 23 year-old.
During most of his time, Pope abandoned himself to writing when spending time reading books from his father‘s library, which made great contribution to his works later.

Stanza 4
Thus let me live,unseen,unknown; Thus unlamented let me die;
Steal from the world,and not a stone Tell where I lie.
让我就这样幽独地活在世上, 让我去世时无人悼念痛惜, 悄悄离开人间,死于何时何地, 无需石碑铭记。
I think this poem delivery an attitude toward life. It tells us that everyone can live in their own way and there is no need to care about other’s opinion. Wealth and fame are only clouds. What is the most important is health! A person who enjoys living in solitude and peace and doing what he likes is a happy person.
Thus let me live,unseen,unknown; Thus unlamented let me die; Steal from the world,and not a stone Tell where I lie. Pope was determined to lead a secluded,pastoral life,for he believe that this life could bring peace to his mind and provide him with sources and environments for his writing. It shows Alexander Pope’s hope to have a peacefully seccluded life.
