Elegies consist of two parts. The Elegies themselves form a coherent whole, taking us through twenty four hours, from night to night, with connections of image, ideas and sounds.The second part is a series of poems that he has called Lamentations. These deal with sombre themes, like war and loss but also offer solace.The poems might be elegiac but they are supposed to give pleasure!
