dabbe #mytwocents Having “The Rhyme of the Ancient Mariner“ be one of Walton's favorite poems is crucial to his meeting of the “stranger.“ Just like the mariner, who has a tale to tell (a la Jacob Marley in A CHRISTMAS CAROL), the stranger also has a story to tell to ward off the ambition of Walton in his pursuit of seaworthy excellence. In one of the most famous frame tales every written, we're now going to go back to hear the tale. 15h
